Student Classifications

  1. Degree Student:  Graduate students who have been accepted by the department with an undergraduate quality point average of 3.0/4.0 or better.

  2. Non-degree Student:  Students with appropriate academic qualifications who do not wish to pursue a degree program.

  3. Non-Matriculated Student: 

    i)  Graduate credit earned by non-degree students may be applied toward a degree program by petition to the Director of Graduate Studies after acceptance as a degree student.

    ii)  Students who are admitted to a particular course on a no-credit basis at the discretion of

    the Department and the instructor of the course.  No transcripts or other supporting papers are required, but an online application must be completed.

    iii)  Provisional Admission:  Students admitted on a provisional basis do not qualify as degree students and must demonstrate their ability to perform satisfactorily at the graduate level before being admitted to degree candidacy.  A grade of B or higher is required in each of the first three graduate courses. Otherwise, the student will be dropped automatically from the program with no further probationary period possible.
