Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Requirements
Texas college students under 30 years old must be vaccinated against bacterial meningitis before they can enroll in classes (Section 51.9192 of the Texas Education Code.) If you have been admitted to UT Arlington, you are required to submit proof of your meningitis vaccination to Magnus Health SMR at least 10 days before the start of the semester in which you plan to enroll.
Being a graduate student is about more than learning your discipline. It’s about sharpening skills that will support your academic and professional career; juggling school, work and home life; and developing relationships with mentors and colleagues. Visit the EDGE website for workshop reservations and links to EDGE workshop presentations and resources.
DS-PRO
Set Goals. Track Progress. Succeed. The Doctoral Student Progress Report Online is an on-line tool that allows you and your supervising professor to collaboratively set goals, then monitor and report on your progress toward those goals. You both create a concrete, permanent record of expectations and intentions, providing a kind of road-map to guide you along the path towards your degree.

Diplomas
Your graduation fee includes one diploma, but you can always order additional diplomas by using the Request For Diploma Reorder (PDF, 182KB) form. Diplomas are usually mailed out about 5-6 weeks after grades are posted.
Letters of Certification
If you need to provide verification that you’ve met all your degree requirements, in addition to your official UT Arlington transcript, you can request a Letter of Certification. You may be asked to provide such a letter when applying for a US work visa. You can also request this letter if you’ve been approved to graduate In Absentia in the next term. To request a letter, please submit a Request Letter of Certification of Graduation (PDF, 14KB) form.
