A student completes a graduation application by visiting the link found in their Gibson Portal, bringing them to gradapp.tulane.edu where their SSO connects them to their active programs in Banner.

• More information for students on how to apply to graduate can be found in the Graduation Application Instructions, which are stored on the Registrar website under “Student Resources.”

• This information is fed from the GradApp to Banner; any updates made to the SHAGAPP within Banner will not reflect on the GradApp, should the student return to check it (an updated address, for example, will not appear on the student’s view, even though you have made the changes in Banner.)

Updates can be made to the following fields:

• Graduation Status: AG - Applied to Graduate; WP - Walking Participant; WF - Walking in Future.

• Graduation Date/Year

• Attend Ceremony - refers to the Unified Ceremony only.

• Diploma Name

• Diploma Address

• Graduation Application Status: AC - Active Application; IA - Inactive Application (CANNOT be undone.)

Updates cannot be made to the Graduation Term. The first term listed will always be read as the true term of an application, causing other Banner processes to malfunction. If a change must be made due to error in term selection on the GradApp, the SHAGAPP must be deleted and the student sent back to the application online to reenter.

To generate data in the screens SHAGAPP, SHADIPL, and SHADGMQ, you will click “create/update degree record.”

• This is also accomplished when the Appworx Job known as “roll to outcome” is run, creating the graduation sequence from SHAGAPP for all active apps in the current term. This job is run at the start of Exam Week.

• Any updates to the diploma name or address should be followed by clicking the “create/update” button to ensure that the changes make it to the final order sheet.

Information about manually entering an application from Banner can be found in the instructions:
