  The thesis advisor will check the accuracy of the abstract, make any corrections to the thesis title and sign the form;

NOTE: The definitive PDF format file must include as first pages the following 4 sheets ordered as follows:

• 1^st page: title page
• 2^nd page: thanks (if not included a white page)
• 3^rd page:  a white page 
• 4^th page: a white page.

Students must pay particular attention when uploading the file through the 'Thesis title - Information completion' function: once the definitive upload is confirmed it can no longer be modified. NOTICE: the definitive file must exclusively be uploaded through the 'Thesis title - Information completion' function. The "Thesis attachments" function IS NOT to be considered as an alternative function to upload the definitive file of the thesis.

The final file uploading on the Punto Blu using the function Thesis final attachment is to be considered as definitive and replaces CD rom thesis submission phase ( thus students no longer have to submit any file on paper or CD Rom).

In addition, once the file has been uploaded on the Punto Blu, changes are no longer possible. When the student prints out the approval form, the Advisor professor receives the notification of the definitive upload and can proceed with final reading.
The deadlines regarding the various phases of the graduation procedure are specified on the graduation calendar.
