Upon completion of your thesis and its approval by your readers, your first reader will change the grade for Thesis Research.

When you have finalized all changes to your thesis and it has been approved and graded by both of your readers, you must upload your completed thesis to UDspace and ProQuest. To submit your thesis to UDspace, open the EDT submission form found here. 

After you have completed the form, you will download it and submit it, along with a PDF copy of your completed thesis to archives@udallas.edu. You must also include a confirmation email from your advisor, chair or director of the acceptance and completion of your work. Your advisor, chair or director can directly email the acceptance and completion confirmation to archives@udallas.edu, or, if it is emailed to you, download it and submit it along with your completed EDT submission form and a PDF copy of your completed thesis to archives@udallas.edu,
