Forms & Policies

 

Policy Guidelines

The Office of Graduate studies policies have been designed and have evolved with the following goals intended:

  1. to facilitate the orderly progress of graduate students,
  2. to meet expectations of accrediting agencies, other graduate schools and the Board of Regents,
  3. to provide a common standard and,
  4. to encourage the development of quality programs.

A graduate student is responsible for how to find and being aware of the Office of Graduate Studies’ official policies. These are found in the biennial bulletin published in every even-numbered year.

Every effort will be made by Graduate Studies staff, program coordinators and assistants, and faculty advisers to aid a student in understanding the policies as they apply to each individual.

Be aware of the following about a semester/term withdrawal.

  • Talk with the program coordinator/advisor about the withdrawal. The coordinator/advisor needs to approve the request. Only requests with details/documentation outlining extenuating circumstances will be given consideration for a refund of tuition/fees if the request is after a refund deadline.
  • A withdrawal from all courses does not mean an automatic refund of tuition and fees. Please review the refund dates and restrictions on the Student Accounts/Financial Services website to know whether any refund is possible.
