Students who are taking COLT concurrently with another program follow the same process as above. As soon as the student receives the final grade for the last required COLT course, the student may submit the COLT GCERT Checklist to the COLT Coordinator cc’ing the LTEC Office to perform a degree check. Even if the student is concurrently pursuing another degree, COLT graduation and certification does not need to be postponed until the completion of the second program.
For example (A), if a student is a concurrent LTEC MEd and COLT student, the following documents will be required to be submitted if filing for graduation for both programs:
- COLT GCERT Checklist
- Submit to COLT Program Coordinator at end of semester when final grades are released
- Application for Degree for MEd
- Submit to UHM Graduate Division by the Graduation Application Deadline (typically the first or second month of the semester)
- $30 processing fee for the MEd Application for Degree (no additional fees for COLT)
For example (B), if a student is a concurrent LTEC PhD and COLT student, and would like to file for COLT graduation, before completing the PhD program, the following documents will be required to be submitted to file for graduation for the COLT program:
- COLT GCERT Checklist
- Submit to COLT Program Coordinator and cc the LTEC office (see Program Contacts below) at the end of semester when final grades are released. DO NOT submit the form to the Graduate Division.
- The LTEC Department Office will collect the required signatures and submit the completed form to the UHM Graduate Division on the student’s behalf. There is no additional processing or filing fees for Graduate Certificates.
