Catalog Graduation Requirements

You will graduate under the catalog requirements in effect for the semester that you were first enrolled unless you have a one-year break in attendance (excluding summer term). If you interrupt attendance, you must meet the requirements of the catalog in effect at the time you re-enrolled. You can also choose to use the catalog that is in effect the semester you graduate. Be sure to keep a copy of your catalog.

You will not receive a diploma until you have met all financial obligations to any college that is part of the Colorado Community College System (CCCS).
