| 4.2 CONFERRING OF
DEGREES Advanced degrees are conferred in commencement exercises at the close of each semester. Each candidate for a graduate degree must submit a completed application for advanced degree to the Office of the Graduate School at the time of registration for the semester or the first term of the summer session in which requirements for a degree are to be completed. (A student must have submitted a plan of study and must have been approved for candidacy for a degree well in advance of filing the application for a degree. Please refer to the Catalog’s sections on plan of study and candidacy for master’s, educational specialist, and doctoral degrees.) At least one week before commencement, the candidate's record must have been cleared for graduation. A candidate for the doctoral degree must be present at a scheduled commencement to receive the degree, unless excused by the graduate dean. The University of Alabama reserves the right to withhold or withdraw an advanced degree on the recommendation of the graduate faculty.
