The deadline to apply for Summer Quarter graduation is almost here. This is a great time to review your transcript and see how close you are to completing your program of study.
You can apply for graduation one quarter before your final quarter.
If you expect to graduate at the end of either Summer or Fall quarter, please follow the steps to Appy for Graduation. This will ensure that your degree or certificate is posted to your transcript and your diploma is issued.
Upcoming Graduation Application Deadlines
Summer Quarter: July 9, 2025
Fall Quarter: October 7, 2025
If you need help determining your graduation timeline, please contact your advisor in the Advising Center. International Students, please contact International Advising.
Shoreline Community College has partnered with an organization called Vector Solutions to provide online training for our students and staff.
You may have received an email from them this week asking you to complete a short online course called “Sexual Assault Prevention for Community College.” All students are highly encouraged to complete this training.
The training provides important information to support the wellbeing of our campus community, and to help students maintain compliance with the college’s Student Conduct Policy, which expressly prohibits sexual harassment, intimidation, and violence.
If you received an email from Vector Solutions, please take a moment to review their message and complete the assigned training by June 30, 2025.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact our Title IX and EEO Coordinator, Liam O’Connor, at loconnor@shoreline.edu.
To support the college’s work in using student-centered data to drive decision-making, we are asking students in a random sample of class sections to participate in a survey called the CCSSE this Spring.
The Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE) is a survey used by colleges across the country to identify areas in which we can develop and refine our practices to better serve YOUR needs.
If your class has been selected for the CCSSE, an administrator from Shoreline’s Student Services team will visit your class to implement the survey sometime between May 12-23. Your instructor will let you know your class’s specific date and time once it’s scheduled. On this date, here’s what you need to do:
If possible, bring a personal electronic device to class (phones will work). If you do not have a personal electronic device, laptops will be available to borrow.
The survey administrator will provide a QR code and/or link to access the survey; you will need to sign in with your CTCLink ID, so make sure you know that number.
Complete the survey fully, thoughtfully and honestly; the survey is confidential, and this is an important way for your perspective to be involved in the college’s decision-making process. From set-up to completion, the survey should take about 25 minutes (give or take).
If you need an accommodation, please let your instructor know. We want to make sure that every student in the selected classes can participate in the survey, because every voice matters! We’ll make the process work for you.
So, what comes next? During the 25-26 school year, be on the lookout for opportunities to participate in a “data deep dive” — a chance for the college community to review and reflect on the results of the survey. This will also be an opportunity to learn about survey trends that Shoreline CC’s leadership has identified as high priorities for the college.
Thank you for your participation in this survey. We are eager to grow and keep students, the life force of our institution, at the center of our practice.
