Former Student Seeking Degree: If you didn't apply to graduate, but have all your credits, please complete steps 1 and 2.

Reverse Transfer: If you have taken additional college courses or obtained approved alternative learning credit since leaving BSC and would like to apply to graduate, please complete steps 1, 2 and 3.
