Graduating seniors must complete the following steps before the applicable deadline listed below: 

  1. Complete the anonymous POLI Exit Survey--check your email--- and provide proof of completion to the department.
    • Email a screenshot of the confirmation message to polisci@scu.edu
  2. Apply for Program Completion on your Workday Profile. 
  3. Complete the Pre-Graduation Evaluation on the Registrar's website.
    • The department will not review your Pre Graduation Evaluation until you complete the POLI Exit Survey.

Please use the following format to submit unsatisfied requirements:

Double and triple majors: It is your responsibility to coordinate with the other department(s) to ensure your form is processed before the Registrar's deadline. If POLI is listed as a second or third major, we cannot process your request until the other department(s) approve your form.

Each department has its own process for reviewing Pre-Graduation Evaluations. Please contact the department manager of the respective department if you have inquiries.

Confirmation emails: It is your responsibility to READ the auto-generated confirmation emails that track the progress of your Pre-Grad Evaluation form. Be sure to read the department comments at the bottom of approval email.
