Graduation Requirements

To receive a master's degree, the candidate must meet the following academic requirements:

  • Completion of all coursework and key assessments:

    No credits earned with a grade below a B- will be accepted for graduation requirements.

    Any credits earned with a grade of C+, C, or C- must be retaken during the regular schedule of courses resulting in a delay of graduation.

    Any credits earned with a grade below a C- in any class will result in the immediate disenrollment (without successful appeal) from the Council of Chairs regardless of the cumulative GPA.

Successfully participate in an Exit Summative over one’s major field of study. This is required during the final semester of the candidate’s program.

  • Apply for graduation with Academic Records.
  • Successfully complete ALL required field experiences.
  • Complete master’s level coursework within a five-year period of the beginning date of program. (Licensure regulations could change administrative qualifications.)
