When to declare

end of the first term of their second year. To do this, students
must obtain a form in the Registrar's Office and complete the form
with the appropriate adviser and department chair signature.
Each major includes separate requirements
which are listed in the Wartburg College academic catalog. This
catalog is available in the Registrar's Office.
Diploma
Application
During the third year,
students must complete a diploma application which starts the graduation
process. Advisers, together with the Registrar's Office, exercise
all possible care in checking students' records for graduation.
However, it is the sole responsibility of the student to fulfill
all requirements for a degree.
