If a student wishes to use a name other than their legal name, such as a nickname, the nickname should appear in place of the middle name with quotations. Students who wish to have a name different than their legal name in place of their first or last name must go through the formal process to update their name and submit proof of the change of legal name with the admissions and records office.

  6. Students using external credits to meet graduation requirements, such as AP exam, CLEP exam, IB exam or military credit, must submit the official external exam scores and/or DD214 to the admissions and records office at the time of application.

  7. Official transcripts from other colleges attended by the student must be on file with the admissions and records office at the time of application.

  8. Foreign transcripts must be evaluated by an approved transcript evaluation service. Students should seek advice from a counselor prior to evaluating foreign transcripts.

  9. A student who receives one degree or certificate may subsequently or simultaneously work on additional degrees and certificates.

We encourage students to track their progress toward degrees, certificates, and/or skill awards using Degree Works. A navigation guide and login instructions may be found on the Degree Works website.

All earned graduation requirements must come from a single catalog. Requirements, including a description of catalog rights, can be found in the Citrus College Catalog. For questions and further assistance with using Degree Works, please visit the Counseling and Advisement Center or call (626) 914-8530.

For information regarding graduation requirements, please visit associate degree requirements or call the Counseling and Advisement Center at (626) 914-8530.

  

One commencement/graduation ceremony is held at the end of spring semester for students who graduated with an associate degree the preceding summer, fall, winter and spring terms.

A summer graduate may request to participate in the preceding spring commencement/graduation ceremony if they submit the graduation application by that spring commencement/graduation ceremony deadline, meet all graduation requirements for summer graduation at the time of evaluation, and are enrolled in only one or two classes for a total of nine or fewer units in summer.

For more information on participating in the graduation ceremony, please visit the commencement activities page.
