Student Classification

Date Implemented: May 15, 2002
Date Revised: February 24, 2009

Students who have received a baccalaureate degree and have been admitted to a degree program for the purpose of taking courses that may be used to meet the requirements of a degree beyond the baccalaureate are called "graduate students."

The Dean of the program may be petitioned for a waiver of this requirement. Copies of approved waivers are to be retained in the student’s file, the Dean’s Office, and Office of Academic Affairs.

Important Note: In the absence of a more strict policy at the school or college level the University Graduate Academic Policies apply. Should a graduate program not have a specific policy or should there be omissions or gaps in the policy for a specific graduate school program, the University Graduate Policy shall govern.

The Graduate Academic Policies are the responsibility of the office of Academic Affairs. For additions or revisions contact Dr. Angeline Barretta-Herman, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs.
