Academic Policies
A student is considered full time when enrolled in at least six hours of graduate study. The MREML curriculum is designed around a nine hour semester. Students, however, may choose to take only six hours. Semesters below six hours will be considered only on a hardship basis and by the prior approval of the program director.
program’s admissions committee or program director selects them for admission; however, Conditional Admission status is not automatically granted to applicants with partial fulfillment of the admission requirements.
A student must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 (B) on a 4.0 scale to be in good standing with the university. At the end of each semester (including summer), the Registrar and Student Financial Services review the student's record to determine whether the student is meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements. Academic/Financial Aid action notices are distributed after final grades are recorded for the semester and students are notified in writing if an Academic/Financial Aid action has been taken (outlined in the Satisfactory Academic Progress policy).
A student must satisfactorily complete all requirements for the MREML degree within four years of being admitted into the graduate program.
