The GSC may recommend termination to the Dean of Graduate Studies if a student is not making satisfactory progress. Again, contact your faculty adviser to learn what constitutes satisfactory academic progress in your area/program. Students have the option to voluntarily withdraw from the doctoral program.
Grades/Symbols
For graduate courses within the Department, students may receive the following symbols: letter grades (A-F), credit/no credit (CR/NC), course drop (Q or F), total withdrawal for a semester (W), temporary delay in reporting of the final grade (X), permanent incomplete (I), and ongoing coursework (*).
The ongoing coursework symbol (*) is used for dissertation, thesis, and master’s report – ongoing courses where a final grade (CR) is given upon completion. Although internship may be ongoing, it is given a CR/NC grade each semester. When a student fails to complete the required assignments for a particular class, the instructor may elect to give the student a temporary incomplete (X).
