ETD Submission/Approval Process
The University uses the ProQuest ETD Administrator to facilitate the submission/approval process of GW electronic theses and dissertations. By submitting to the ProQuest ETD Administrator, the final and approved version of your thesis or dissertation will be deposited to ProQuest's Dissertation and Theses Online Database and the University's institutional repository, GW ScholarSpace. 

We hope you will find this method easy to use and a great tool to make your document instantaneously available to faculty, potential employers, and interested readers worldwide. To learn about ETDs and the many other benefits of doing an ETD, please consult the About GW ETDs page on this website.

If you need help with the ETD submission process, you may make an appointment with the Library ETD Administrator.
