Students who have not applied for graduation but still meet the graduation requirements will have their degree posted.
Some CVTC programs have embedded credentials that students may earn along their way to graduating from their intended degree. Students should review their program page on MyCVTC to see if their degree has any embedded credentials. Student coursework is reviewed at the end of each semester and awarded if an embedded diploma is completed. This degree will be listed on the student transcript and the student will receive an email verification of award. If a physical diploma is desired, students will need to complete the embedded diploma request form.
Students who interrupt their education and then re-enter are required to meet current program requirements. If a student does not enroll in any course for two or more consecutive semesters, the student is required to reapply with Admissions. The student must abide by the degree requirements in effect at the time of re-entry.
Certificate Completion
Students who complete all course requirements for a short-term certificate at CVTC should submit a Certificate Completion form with the fee of $5 per certificate. The form is available in MyCVTC, under forms. Students should review the certificate requirements to ensure they have met all the requirements for the certificate before applying. After verification of course completion, the Records and Registration Office will send a printed certificate to the student. Certificate completion is also noted on the student’s transcript.
Graduate Resources
CVTC Alumni Association
All CVTC graduates are members of the CVTC Alumni Association and encouraged to participate in Alumni Association activities. The mission of the Alumni Association is to enhance the experiences of current students, engage with alumni of all ages, and celebrate the success of graduates and friends of the College.
A multi-member and geographically diverse alumni board oversees events and activities of the Association. Alumni participate in College activities such as scholarship receptions, commencements, and serve as members of CVTC advisory committees. Each year at the Spring Gala, the Alumni Association presents the Distinguished Alumni, Outstanding Recent Alumni and Proven Business Partner Awards. The Association also awards several student scholarships each year. The Alumni Association uses social media to connect with and engage our alumni. Check us out on Facebook, and LinkedIn. Connect with us, and more importantly, with each other!
To contact the Alumni Association, phone 715-831-7299, email alumni@cvtc.edu, or visit https://www.cvtc.edu/alumni.
Email Access after Graduation
After graduation, email is accessed through https://outlook.office365.com. In the address field enter <username>@student.cvtc.edu. The password will be the same as the CVTC network password used to login to MyCVTC or any computer on campus. The student email will expire 12 months after the last day of the last class at CVTC.
Graduate Follow-up Survey
The CVTC Graduate Follow-up Survey is sent to graduates approximately six months after graduation. Graduates are given the opportunity to complete and return a paper survey or to complete the survey online. The Graduate Follow-up Survey provides CVTC and the Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS) with important information regarding how graduates feel about their educational experience at CVTC and about their success in the labor market shortly after graduation. The results are used to assist prospective students
