Graduate Program Forms

SMS graduate program forms are currently being transitioned over to DocuSign, a secure and efficient platform for electronically signing forms. Once the DocuSign template is initiated, the form will be routed automatically to signers via an email invitation. When the form is complete, it will route to Academic Affairs and all signers will receive a PDF copy of the completed form.
Important Note about DocuSign: Please view the sample forms first before initiating the DocuSign template. Once the template begins routing, signers cannot be changed or added without voiding the entire envelope and starting over.
If you have questions about DocuSign, please contact the [[registrar, SMS Registrar]].
School of Marine Science forms that have not yet transitioned to DocuSign are available as PDF fillable forms. For these forms, we recommend using Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat Pro to obtain full functionality, including the use of Adobe digital signatures. Mac users who complete fillable forms in Preview have had issues with content not printing correctly on submitted forms. Download Adobe Reader.
