Your dissertation document must be given to your committee members at least 2 weeks before you ask them to sign the Request for Final Oral form (this would be approximately one month prior to your final oral). Any exceptions to this should be worked out with each committee member, as some members will not sign unless they have received the dissertation with ample time for review. Dissertation committee members should be asked if they prefer a hard copy or electronic copy of your dissertation. When delivering your dissertation to your committee members, ask that they review it as soon as possible and let your dissertation supervisor and you know if there are significant problems. The Request for Final Oral form and other required materials indicated on that form must be turned into the Graduate School, at least 2 weeks prior to your final oral. Failure to do this will result in your needing to reschedule your final oral. |
