  • Confirm your Degree Works in MyCSU is met pending final grades. Contact your advisor or department chair if Degree Works is not satisfied.
  • All Associate and Bachelor seeking students will take the Outcomes Assessment test during their graduation term. You will be emailed instructions for completion by CSU's Testing Center.
  • Incomplete grades must be reconciled and transient grades must be posted by the last day of your graduation term.
  • Confirm you satisfied the GA History and GA Constitution requirement on Degree Works.
    • If you took US History and/or American Government at an institution outside of the state Georgia or earned credit by AP, IB or CLEP exam, you have met the US requirement, but not the Georgia requirement. You must meet the GA requirement by taking an exam.
