| Period of Candidacy |
| At the time of admission, students are notified by the Admissions Office of the dates of their candidacy (five years from the date of admission). Should this time expire, the Faculty Advisor and the Registrar may grant an extension based on the student's written request and proof of hardship. When students are requesting such an extension, the Faculty Advisor may require a written plan for completing the degree requirements before endorsing the student's request. |
