College of Business Procedures for Completing Undergraduate Application for Graduation
1. Pick up an application from the One Stop Student Services Center in the Student Services Building during the first week of your final semester (or summer session) or access it online. The completed application must be submitted by the deadline for the term in which you expect to graduate. NOTE: Finance, Banking and Hospitality Management majors must visit the department office in BUS 314 before completing the application.

2. Type or print neatly in ink if using the paper form, or follow online instructions. If you use the online form, select the listing that indicates your concentration or emphasis, i.e. Bus Admin (Accounting) 400307.

a. The first section contains personal information; information about Segment III and JEPET, and asks you to list all courses in progress or to be completed.

b. In the second section, LIST ALL THE COURSES CONSTITUTING YOUR MAJOR in the order in which they appear in the Bulletin* and Core Course Sheet. List all courses in progress or to be completed, but leave the grade blank. Do not list prerequisite courses, ENG 114 or 214, SPCH 150, ECON 100 or DS/MATH 110 or equivalents.

c. List courses taken at institutions other than SFSU with the department abbreviations, numbers, titles, units, and grades as they appear on your transcript from that institution. You need to have equivalencies on a Course Substitution Form (pink sheet) which you will attach to the application. Sign the application and keep a copy for your records.

d. Don’t have a Course Substitution Form? Bring a copy of your non-SFSU transcripts to BUS 137 for help.

3. Meet with a Faculty Advisor from your major department for their approval and signature. Faculty office hour information is posted outside BUS 137, outside of department offices, and online.

4. Pay the application fee at the Cashier’s Office before the deadline. ($40.00 for first time applicant; $10.00 for re-applications; an additional $5.00 late fee charge). A paid stamp will be imprinted on your form.

5. Turn in the completed and signed application to BUS 137 for the Department Chair’s signature. NOTE: Finance, Banking and Hospitality Management majors turn in your application to BUS 314. Your major department will then review your application and forward it to the Registrar’s Office for processing. You will be contacted by the major department if there are any problems with your application. The Registrar’s Office will issue a preliminary report once they have reviewed your application. If you have not received a preliminary report, contact the Degree Evaluation Office directly at (415) 338-1634.

6. Application denied? If your graduation application is denied because you have not finished all course work or graduation requirements, you must re-apply for graduation and follow the procedures listed above.

*Bulletin Requirements and Rights
Students may choose between three Bulletins:
-- The one in use when the student began attendance in regular sessions in any combination of CSU and California Community College campuses (requires continuous attendance, which is defined as enrollment in at least one semester each calendar year);

-- The one in use at the time of graduation.
Effective Fall 1986, students who declare/change majors are required to follow the Bulletin requirements for that major in effect at the time of the declaration/change or in effect when the student graduates.
