Big Up Yourself

Pop that bottle of champs for Alisha Little and Reece Sharman-Newell. Why? Over the weekend Alisha was named as the 2024 Colorado Collegiate Athlete of the Year and Reece, for the first time ever, busted the record for the fastest mile time on Colorado soil. Well done, fam.

On behalf of the Registrars Office


The due date for Spring 2025 graduation contracts is 5:00 p.m. on 02/14/25. Contracts may still be submitted after this date, however a $25 late fee will automatically be assessed and placed on the student bill.

                                                                         

All contracts should be sent to the designated email: graduationcontracts@csupueblo.edu.


Electronic contracts should be sent individually, with the student’s last name, first name and Net ID in the subject line.

A-H: David Carleo

PLEASE DO NOT SEND DUPLICATE COPIES OF CONTRACTS IN EITHER ELECTRONIC OR HARD COPY FORMAT, AS THIS CREATES CONFUSION AND HINDERS THE ENTRY PROCESS.

• Intended semester for graduation, catalog year, degree intent and all major(s), emphasis area(s) and minor(s) are correct and reflect what is in Banner and on DARS audit. 

 • All DARS audit deficiencies noted are fixed PRIOR to contract submission. (Exceptions and petitions must be reflected on the DARS audit prior to submission.)

• ALL required signatures are present. 

 

All contracts are reviewed before being placed in the degree conferral queue. If any of the above issues are found, the contract will be returned for corrections before being placed in the queue.


Please note that degree conferral and participation in the commencement ceremony follow separate processes and deadlines. The information in this announcement refers solely to degree conferral.
