Instructions
Welcome to the U Marin Grad School (Demonstration Site). You may use this demonstration site to walk through the steps involved in delivering electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) to ProQuest. This is intended for graduate school administrators evaluating the use of the system for their schools.
Demonstration Instructions
To play the role of a student submitting a thesis/dissertation:
Click the "start your submission" button at the top of the page. Once you click on the link, you will be taken to another page where you should choose the option to sign up now and use your email address (the password will be emailed to you) to sign up for a new account. You may then log in and follow the submission sequence.
To view the administrator tools:
Be sure to log out as a student (at the end of the submission process), and then click the My Account link on this page to log back in as an administrator. Log in with the email address "marin@demo.bepress.com" and password "demo". Once you have logged in, you will have access to the Submission Management tools. Please be careful not to edit the profile of the administrator account so all testers will continue to have access.
Documentation for administrators.
Fees
A standard fee of $55 for the archiving of the dissertation, or $45 for a thesis, is applied to all submissions.
In addition, authors now also have the option of selecting Open Access publishing for an additional $95 fee. For the additional fee, we will make your graduate work available online free of charge to researchers.
During the submission process, you will have the option to request that UMI Dissertation Publishing file for copyright on your behalf. If you choose this option, there will be an additional $65.00 fee payable via credit card during the online submission process.
If you encounter any problems, please contact technical support.
