Directions on Form, Preparation, and Submission of the Final Copies of Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

Acknowledgments Page

The Acknowledgments page is optional and can be deleted if you decide not to use it. 

This is the place in your document where you may either thank all of the important people in your life who helped you achieve your current success, or other persons you deem as important to your work.  It can also be as short or long as you like. 

Template users:  It is best to wait until you have completely finalized your document before deleting this page, unless you are absolutely positive that you will not use it.
