What is the final day to turn in my thesis/dissertation without paying fees for the following quarter?
The “drop-dead” deadline changes from quarter to quarter; sometimes it is only a few days after the initial submission deadline, other times it is as much as several weeks later. In general, the “drop-dead” deadline falls on the day before the official start of the following quarter. Note that for any manuscript submitted after the initial submission deadline, the degree is awarded for the following academic quarter. It therefore is not necessary to obtain an extension in order to submit by this date.
