2. An applicant may also satisfy any of the course requirements
described above by taking an examination in the subject with the
instructor in charge. Every examination of this type will cover the
whole of the course specified and the student will not be permitted
to take it either in parts (e.g. term by term) or more than twice.
These so-called candidacy examinations will be given early in the
fall term of each year and the student must apply for permission to
take them before the end of the second week of the term. Such
application must be in writing and, if approved, will be regarded
as one of the two permitted trials, whether or not the student
actually takes the examination. (Note: The above regulations are
not to be interpreted as preventing the student, with the permission
of the instructor in charge, from satisfying the candidacy requirements
by taking the term examinations in a course without actual
class attendance.)
No course which has been taken more than twice will be counted
towards the fulfilment of the above candidacy requirements, nor
will the student be permitted a total of more than three trials at
the removal of any part of the candidacy requirements.
Students are advised to satisfy the conditions for admission to
candidacy in their respective departments as rapidly as possible.
Students registered for the Ph.D. degree who fail to meet at least
two-thirds of the candidacy requirements by the end of their first
year of graduate study will not be allowed to register for further
work without special permission from the department.
