Below is a small selection of particularly important rules from the UM Catalog, with links to the relevant Catalog sections.
Students typically use the catalog under which they first enrolled at UM. But students may graduate fulfilling requirements in any 猎奇重口-Missoula catalog under which they have been enrolled during the six years prior to graduation. Precise details about this, including special rules for transfer students, can be found in the .
To change your catalog, please go to the Registrar's Office, or send an email (from your official UM student email account) to graduation@umontana.edu (please include your student id number).
