Graduate students are expected to become familiar with the academic regulations of the University and the specific requirements of their graduate program. The student is solely responsible for complying with all regulations of the University, the College of Graduate Studies and the department/program of instruction, and for meeting all requirements for the degree. Regulations and requirements may also be referenced in the university catalog, the university policy webpage, the graduate student handbook, and the degree program handbook or webpage. The student should consult with their advisor on a regular basis to ensure that they remain on track within the degree program or in the event that there are any questions concerning the requirements for the degree.
