Academic Standards

Statement of Satisfactory Academic Progress

Individual Departmental Program directors and the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies periodically review the academic progress of each student. These evaluations include qualitative and quantitative review of progress in all areas of graduate education, including course work, research, academic enrichment, professionalism, and other scholarly activity as outlined by each Program. A student may be dropped from a Program at any time when academic progress is judged inadequate.
