Thesis and Project Committee Signoffs and Format Review
Committee signoffs and format review approval require two separate submission processes.
- Submitting your thesis for committee signoffs
To register your committee approvals, use Adobe Sign's Graduate Thesis/Project Committee Approval Form. Upload a pdf of your thesis to the form and send it to your committee members and program graduate coordinator no later than the Monday of finals week. Here are detailed instructions. - Submitting your thesis for the official format review
After all signatures have been registered on your Adobe Sign's Graduate Thesis/Project Committee Approval Form, submit a Word file of your thesis to Humboldt Digital Commons for the format review. The deadline for submission is the Tuesday of finals week before 11:59am.
When to Submit
All signatures must be registered in the Graduate Thesis/Project Committee Approval Form before you can submit your thesis/project for the final review. We recommend sending out your committee approval form at least one week early to give committee members time to register their signatures before the final submission deadline.
Note that these are FINAL deadlines.
