Online Graduation Application

Welcome! Ohio University students may now apply for graduation online. The online application must be submitted by the published graduation application deadlines. This online application interacts live with the Student Information System (SIS) and is typically available 7:00 a.m to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday unless otherwise published. The online application provides the option for you to pay online via CASHNET Smart Pay or you will be billed for the appropriate charges.

To access the Online Graduation Application feature, you must use your OAK LOGIN (username and password). Please read the helpful hints below about logging on and using this online feature.

Logging On

For problems logging on to the Online Graduation Application with your OAK ID and Password:

• If you have forgotten or need help changing your OAK password, go to the Support Center, 3rd Floor HDL Center, with photo identification (740/593-1222).
• You must supply your UNIQUE ID (it's the same as your OAK ID) and be sure to use lowercase letters only: "db123456" not "DB123456."
• A security system has been installed so that only you, the student, may apply for graduation. This "DCE" security system recognizes only passwords that have been changed during the past 24 months. If you have difficulty logging on, please change your OAK password in a manner that includes some variation from whatever password was used previously.

Additional information about changing your password and e-mail forwarding may be obtained from Communication Network Services (CNS) by going to the following:
