Applications for Degree or Certificate must be completed no later than the 4th week of classes in the term you expect to graduate. For the Fall 2013 semester, the deadline is Friday, September 27, 2013.


The application process is completed through Pipeline. Instructions are available at: http://reg.wayne.edu/students/degrees.php. For those applying for the MLIS and a certificate, an application must be completed for each.

PLEASE NOTE: students who are pursuing the degree and a certificate concurrently may only have the MLIS listed in pipeline and the system will only allow application for the MLIS degree. Students who must also apply for a certificate should contact Llauna Parker in the SLIS Office in order for the certificate to be added to your record. Llauna can be reached at ab1790@wayne.edu. In your email, please include your name and student ID number. Once the certificate program has been added to your record, you will need to apply for the certificate by completing the Application for Degree or Certificate through Pipeline. Adding a separate certificate program does not apply to students who are pursuing school media endorsement. Students who are pursuing school library media endorsement should review the following information: http://slis.wayne.edu/degrees/endorsement-responsibilities.php.
