Dismissal
If probation is not removed during the next semester, students will be dismissed from the program. Students who have been dismissed from the program for this reason may apply for re-admission after one semester. Readmitted students will have one full-time semester or its equivalent (9 semester credit hours) to remove the scholastic probation by attaining a 3.0 average. Students placed on scholastic probation are not eligible for assistantship. Enrollment may be terminated for any of the following reasons:
- Scholastic probation for three semesters of enrollment.
- Two unsuccessful attempts to defend the thesis, the project, or the final EXIT and oral examination.
- the project, or the final EXIT and oral examination.
- In cases where the student’s Advisory Committee recommends termination after the student has passed the written comprehensive examination, the Graduate faculty will vote on the recommendation. If the Graduate faculty concurs and the student dissents, the student will have an opportunity to meet with the Graduate faculty, after which a second vote will be taken and a final recommendation will be made to the Division of Computer and Technical Sciences.
