An override or permission code is a numerical code provided to students to override common student enrollment issues that prevent successful registration into a course. Codes are primarily used to override the following issues:
If you believe you should be allowed to get special permission to enroll into a course, please speak to your academic advisor. They can provide a permission code that can be used to provide that enrollment override. Instructions regarding how to use a permission code may be found here.
Please be sure to check the Academic Calendar if you are in need of any important academic dates, such as first/last days to drop/add/withdraw, etc.
Documentation may be needed for any of the following reasons:
A statement of standing, deferments, or enrollment verification may be requested by completing the Statement of Standing and Deferment Request form. Your request will be processed after the census date of the current term. For past enrollments, your request will be made available to you within two business days.
To request a transcript or enrollment verification, you will need to provide the following:
You may request a transcript or verification online through Parchment.
Cost for transcripts is $11.25 per transcript (regular processing) OR $25 per transcript (same-day processing or if mailing to an international address).
Cost for verifications is $7.60 per verification.
Transcripts/verifications are sent electronically through Parchment. There are additional mailing fees if you request printed items. Note: Transcripts prior to the year 2000 may not be able to use the electronic delivery service.
Please feel free to email transcripts@stthom.edu if you have any questions!
If you’re looking to transfer in credits from another institution, your transcript should be sent directly to the Office of Admissions for evaluation. They will review your transcript and determine which, if any, courses will transfer in. We will then post that to your record.
Please feel free to email transcripts@stthom.edu if you have any questions!
You must apply in order to graduate. Graduation applications are accepted one semester before your expected graduation term. You'll receive a notification on your UST email account at that time.
Graduation applications are due by the last day of classes of the spring/fall term prior to your graduation term.
You'll first need to meet with your academic advisor who will make you eligible to apply for graduation. Once eligible, you'll have access to the online graduation application through your MyStThom portal.
UST's Commencement ceremony is held once per year, typically on the 2nd Saturday in May. RSVPs are sent to graduation candidates between February and March each year.
The date of your degree conferral posting depends upon which semester you will be graduating:
You should anticipate diploma availability 4-6 weeks after degree conferral. A notification email will be sent to your UST email account when your diploma is on its way (a digital copy is sent to your @stthom.edu email address and the physical copy is mailed to your address on file).
Please note that your degree conferral and the commencement ceremony are separate events. Since we only have one commencement ceremony a year, you may walk in Commencement before/after your degree conferral date.
All other forms for students and faculty can be found on myStThom.
