Office of the Graduate School:
The Office of the Graduate School works in tandem with our graduate programs to promote and enhance the overall graduate student experience. Personal attention and academic excellence are hallmarks of a Xavier education.
On our website, you will find information regarding the Graduate Student Association (GSA) GSA represents all full- and part-time graduate students and works to improve the quality of life for all graduate students at Xavier. GSA is an excellent leadership opportunity available to any Xavier graduate student. You will also find information regarding Graduate Assistantship (GA) position opportunities. Graduate assistantships are a great way to help finance your graduate experience at Xavier University.

Final Grades and Graduation
To see final grades for your courses, you must go through the Student Hub. There you will see "Academic Records/Registration Information". From this link you can view your final grades, view a copy of your student academic transcript, and visit the DegreeWorks audit tool which shows your complete curriculum requirements for the degree. This is an excellent guide for reviewing progress in the program.
The last link you will see here is the "graduation Application." While graduation seems like a ways off, you do need to know that this form must be completed very early in the semester in which you plan to graduate. Therefore, when you register for courses in your final term also fill out this application and submit it. There will be a $50 application fee added at that time for the semester.
