Dissertation and Thesis Format Review: After Format Review

What happens after format review?

1. When you have no more format corrections to make to your thesis or dissertation, you'll get an email from your format reviewer letting you know the process is complete.

2. Depending on your program,  you will receive a separate email from administrative staff with instructions for uploading your work to ProQuest.

3. After you've uploaded your thesis or dissertation, ProQuest will send an auto-alert to administrative staff that the work has been uploaded.

4. Administrative staff will notify your chair and request final approval that the correct version of your work was added to ProQuest.  You will be copied on this communication.

5. When your chair gives final approval, administrative staff will notify the registrar that the degree conferral process can begin (Chicago and Online students) or your chair will notify the registrar (Vancouver) to begin that process.  You will be copied on this communication.
