Navigating Your Degree
Navigating Your Degree
Congrats and Welcome to Starting Your Graduate Program at UCF!
Your academic journey starts with enrolling in classes, connecting with your advisor, and learning to navigate some essential tools like myUCF and the graduate catalog.
You’ll next want to set yourself up for success by creating a Plan of Study with your advisor which will serve as your own personal roadmap through your degree. And just like any travel, you’ll want to monitor your progress to make sure you’re still on track or be able to adjust as needed.
We also know that life doesn’t always go as planned, so we have resources to help you be aware of your options to help manage those out of the ordinary circumstances.
As you approach the completion of your program, you’ll take the final steps to notify UCF that you’re ready to earn your degree and graduate, which may also include your participation in the commencement ceremony!
