Review your ETDR before uploading to K-REx
Use the ETDR Review Checklist (PDF, 2 pages) and save time and stress. It catches 99% of errors that cause ETDR rejection by the Graduate School.
Use the ETDR Request Form to request a review by the ETDR consultant. (The form requires K-State eID/password sign-in.) Attach your file with the paperclip icon near the Submit button. Requests are answered by the consultant within 24-48 hours Monday-Friday.
