My degree status says I have been "denied". What does that mean and what are my next steps?

If your graduation application has been denied, it means that you are missing one or more requirements for graduation - which could include missing grades and other graduation requirements. The email you receive from the Registrar's Office will detail exactly what you are missing.

It is highly recommended that you review your graduation profile on myUMBC and work with your major advisor to resolve any outstanding requirements you may have before reapplying to graduate.
