STANDARDS OF SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC<br />

PROGRESS FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS<br />

A student pursuing a master’s degree must maintain<br />

a minimum cumulative grade point average of<br />

3.0. Graduate students who fail to meet the minimum<br />

grade point requirement will be placed on Academic<br />

Probation for the subsequent quarter of enrollment. If<br />

otherwise eligible, a student may receive financial<br />

assistance during the Academic Probation grading<br />

period. Failure to raise the grade point average above<br />

the minimum specified within the subsequent quarter<br />

will result in Academic Dismissal.<br />

A student will be permitted to attempt 15.0 quarter<br />

hours of graduate work before the application of the<br />

following standards.<br />

�� All other elements of Satisfactory Academic<br />

Progress as outlined in the section on Satisfactory<br />

Academic Progress are applicable to graduate<br />

programs. Additionally, all requirements for<br />

graduate degrees must be completed within five<br />

calendar years from the start of the initial term of<br />

will be notified by the Program Director of the<br />

�� When the presence of mitigating circumstances<br />

causes the student's grade point average to fall<br />

below the minimum standards, a letter from<br />

the student requesting reinstatement may<br />

be submitted to the Graduate Academic<br />

Committee for review. The Committee will<br />

determine whether a probationary reinstatement<br />

is necessary or if the decision for dismissal is<br />

warranted.<br />

ATTENDANCE POLICY<br />

QUARTER-BASED PROGRAMS ONLY<br />

Verifying Enrollment and Tracking Academic-<br />

Related Activities<br />

Enrollment for quarter-based programs is tracked during<br />

the first 21 calendar days of the term, and for a<br />

mini-term, the first fourteen calendar days, excluding<br />

scheduled breaks and holidays. Students who fail to<br />

attend a course during this period will be withdrawn<br />

from the course and students who fail to attend any<br />

courses during this period will be withdrawn from the<br />

school. In addition, student participation in academically-related<br />

activities will be tracked during the 7th<br />

and 8th week of a full term course, and the 4th week of<br />

a mini-term course. Regularly scheduled academicrelated<br />

activities occur throughout the school term and<br />

participation in these activities is essential to student<br />

success. Examples of academic activities include, but<br />

are not limited to: instructor lecture, mid-term assessment,<br />

quiz, field trip and academic advising. Students<br />

who fail to participate in any academically-related<br />

events during this period shall be withdrawn from<br />

school, unless the student participates in an advising<br />

session in the 9th week of the term (5th week of the<br />

mini-term).<br />

Add/Drop Period<br />

�� The first 14 calendar days of each academic quarter<br />

are designated as the add/drop period for students<br />

in quarter-based programs. Holidays that<br />

fall during this timeframe are not counted as part<br />

of the add/drop period. Students who wish to<br />

make course changes must request approval from<br />

the Academic Dean/Director of Education and the<br />

Student Finance Office.
