Progress
A student is expected to make consistent progress towards the degree and maintain regular communication with his/her academic advisor. If a student does not enroll in a course for two terms, or receive an approved leave of
absence, a space in the program will not be maintained, and the student must reapply.
Leave of Absence
A student may request a leave of absence. These requests must be made in writing using the Withdrawal/Leave of Absence form, and signed by the student and advisor. The Associate Dean of Graduate and Continuing Education reviews requests.
Deferral Policy
After admission to an M.S.Ed. program, a student must begin coursework within three terms, or the student will be considered inactive. An inactive student must complete a readmission application if s/he would like to be considered for readmission.
Withdrawal from Program
A student who voluntarily withdraws from the program after beginning coursework may submit are admission application to be considered again.
Commencement
A master’s degree candidate may participate in the commencement ceremony only if he or she has applied for graduation and been certified to participate by Merrill Center Student Services. Where 3-6 credits remain and completion will be in the summer immediately following commencement, students may participate in commencement. However, the diploma will not be released until after the receipt of the final grades at the end of August. All special circumstances must be approved in advance by the Associate Dean of Graduate and Continuing Education.
