This email is intended for students completing their degree requirements in Spring 2021.

Dear GSOE Graduate Students:

If you plan to finish your degree requirements in Spring 2021, please note the following items:

Master’s Students:
1) If you are a master’s student that will finish all required coursework in Winter 2021 and plan to complete your thesis, written exam or analytical report/case study in Spring 2021, you can request to go on Filing Fee Status for one quarter. This request allows you to complete the capstone requirement and only pay the filing fee, currently assessed at $188. If you want to request Filing Fee Status, fill out the application on R’Grad via R’Web by March 1st. Note: if you are a researcher (paid GSR position) or TA, you cannot go on filing fee and maintain your position. Contact me for more information about this.
2) If you plan to finish your coursework and/or capstone project/exam in Spring 2021, fill out the application for “Advancement to Candidacy” on R’Grad via R’Web by March 29th. If you plan to request Filing Fee Status, you will need to submit both the filing fee and application for candidacy together by March 1st.
3) Fill out the graduation application on R’Web no later than April 19th.
4) If you are finishing a thesis, you will need to nominate your thesis committee. The nomination form is part of the “Advancement to Candidacy” form which can be found on R’Grad via R’Web. Also, for those completing a thesis, follow the steps found here<https://graduate.ucr.edu/dissertation-and-thesis-submission> and the deadlines found here<https://graduate.ucr.edu/graduation-procedures#step_3_apply_to_graduate.>.

A copy of the completion form can be found here<http://education.ucr.acsitefactory.com/sites/g/files/rcwecm1216/files/2019-01/MEd%20Capstone%20Completion%20Form%201-2019.pdf>.
