Admissions Status
Academic Probation: Students who have a low GPA (2.45-2.49) may be admitted under academic probation. These students are limited to six hours (as specified by degree programs) for the first term. They must maintain a graduate GPA of 3.0 to continue in the program, after which they may be fully admitted.
Provisionally Admitted: Students who do not have all paperwork in the Graduate Admissions Office by the first day of the term, can be provisionally admitted. Failure to complete the required paperwork by the third week of the term will result in a student being dropped from all coursework. The student may not continue in the program until all paperwork is received.
Fully Admitted: Students who meet the above requirements and have successfully completed the application process may be fully admitted.
After notification of acceptance, the candidate and his/her advisor will complete a Planned Program and enroll in coursework. An advisor will be assigned by the Graduate Online Coordinator. A completed and signed Planned Program must be on file within the first 15 hours of the student’s program.
All graduate students who are beginning a new program must reapply for subsequent programs. A student who has just finished a Masters degree, for example, must reapply before beginning a Rank I program.
