Graduation check list

Attention Seniors:

As you prepare for graduation, remember you must :

• Complete a minimum of 180 units by the end of your quarter of graduation
• Complete a minimum of 60 Upper Division units

• Verify that your American History and Institutions requirement will be complete
• Verify that your Entry Level Writing requirement is satisfied
• Verify that  all University, College general education, and department major requirements will be complete  
• Verify that you did not duplicate any coursework – you may receive credit only once for most course material.  Before you graduate, duplicate units will be deducted from your record.

• A  maximum of 105 quarter units from two-year institutions may be applied toward your graduation requirements
• No additional credit is allowed for repeats of D grades
• Do not exceed your allowable Pass/Not Pass (P/NP) units. No more than 25% of your total UCSD units can be taken P/NP. 

To calculate Pass/No Pass Percentage:

UCSD P/NP units ÷ ( UCSD Graded + UCSD P/NP units)

To calculate your projected P/NP percentage

(UCSD graded + UCSD P/NP+UCSD graded and P/NP units you will take) ÷ by 4= 25%

• Check your degree audit periodically on TritonLink, especially after any course change. Changes to your TritonLink record will be reflected on your audit after 48 hours.

• Check your record for accuracy. Verify that all of your credit is listed correctly.

• To qualify for University Honors, you must attain a minimum of 80 UC graded units.

Verify the following information is accurate on TritonLink
