Degrees are generally revoked for reasons such as:

Academic Misconduct: This includes fraud, misrepresentation, plagiarism, or falsification of data during the degree-earning process. For example, if a student cheated on exams, fabricated research, or lied on their application, the university could determine the degree was not legitimately earned.
Severe Violations Pre-Graduation: Serious breaches of university policy committed before graduation, even if discovered later, can lead to revocation. This might include ethical violations or criminal behavior tied to the academic process.
Administrative Authority: The power to revoke a degree typically rests with high-ranking officials, such as the Provost or a governing board (e.g., the University Senate or Trustees), following a formal investigation and review process. This ensures due process, including notifying the individual and allowing them to respond.
