Before submitting, you will want to go over manuscript to make sure that it meets department and publication guidelines. The manuscript that you submit on ProQuest should reflect the final version, not a draft. If you would like to have your draft looked over, please email the library prior to submission.
Your manuscript must be submitted as a PDF.

Once we receive your submission through ProQuest, we review it to make sure that it meets publication standards. This process may take up to two weeks to complete depending upon the number of submissions from students.
