Thesis and Dissertation Corrections
Students may make only those corrections required by Thesis and Dissertation Services after the manuscript is submitted. Additional corrections requested by the student, the chair, or other committee members will not be accepted without approval of the Graduate and Professional School.Thesis and Dissertation Services will contact the student via email after the first review of the manuscript. The student will make requested corrections in the original Word (or other) file, convert the revised document to a new PDF file, and upload the new PDF to the ETD Submission System, Vireo.
All corrections must be made promptly and meet the deadlines on the Graduate and Professional Studies calendar. Graduation may be postponed if corrections are not made on time.
