Senior Assessment

Graduating Students

Students walking through campus
Congratulations on your achievements!
 
Before graduating, all English graduates are required to submit their Senior Assessment. The Senior Assessment is due the Friday before finals week in the semester you graduate. However, you may begin the work on your portfolio at any time, and you may submit your assessment as much as one semester in advance of your graduation.
 
Please view the instructions, which explain how to prepare and submit your senior portfolio.
 
Each Fall semester, we invite all English majors to join the UCCS English Department Student Hub on Canvas. You can also join the hub yourself at any time by clicking this link. The Canvas page includes instructions for how to submit your portfolio and a link to both the assignments (a portfolio of your work and a brief survey).
 
All students will submit these two assignments through Canvas, but you must be added manually to the assignments. To be added to the assignments, email the English Department Assessment Committee Chair, Dr. Ann Amicucci, at aamicucc@uccs.edu. 
 
Please contact Dr. Ann Amicucci at aamicucc@uccs.edu with questions or concerns.

Each student must be added to the assignments manually because we don't know when you plan to graduate. Please email Dr. Ann Amicucci at aamicucc@uccs.edu to be added to the assignments. You can be added to the assignments to submit up to one semester in advance of your due date. For instance, if you plan to graduate in Spring 2028, you can be added any time between August 2027 and the Friday before finals week in May 2028.
