Northeast Texas Community College offers four associate degrees and a number of certificates. Students have the option of meeting graduation requirements of the current catalog or those outlined in the catalog under which they entered Northeast Texas Community College, provided the catalog is dated no more than five years prior to the expected graduation date.
Commencement ceremonies are held in May, August and December. Refer to class schedules for commencement/graduation application deadlines.
To be considered as a candidate for a degree and/or certificate, the student must meet with an advisor for an official degree audit and submit a formal application for graduation on or before the date specified in the College calendar.
