Provisional Admissions

An applicant for a Master’s program who does not meet the program’s admission standards but who demonstrates the potential to successfully complete graduate work may be considered for provisional admission, when this option is available in the department of application. The provisionally admitted student will be matriculated into the program and must earn at least a 3.0 GPA in the first 9 credits. The student’s coursework for these 9 credits is drawn from the Plan of Study for the graduate degree. Individual programs may have additional retention standards. Details of provisional admission will be specifically outlined at the time a Plan of Study is developed. Failure to meet the provisional admission requirements is sufficient cause for dismissal from the program.
