Academic Policies for Graduate Students

研究生政策和程序的例外情况必须提交批准使用 表格10-申请放弃大学要求. 所有申请都必须经过学位授予程序的审查, 相应的学院院长和研究生院院长.

申请学位的研究生的最低累积GPA要求是3分.0. Note: Individual graduate programs may specify more stringent or specialized requirements beyond this minimum requirement. Students in graduate or professional degree programs whose cumulative grade point average for their graduate program falls below 3.0 at the end of a semester will be designated as not in good academic standing by the University and will be placed on academic probation. 见习研究生需提交一份签名并填妥的表格 Form 11 - Academic Progression Plan (APP) 到研究生院继续他们的学习计划.

学生将与他们的学术顾问或项目协调员一起开发一个APP, 收集必要的签名并将表格提交给研究生院. The major professor and program director/coordinator will ensure that the student on probation adheres to the approved APP (i.e.，注册订明的学位适用课程). The advisor or program coordinator may recommend dismissal instead of developing and approving an APP. 在这种情况下，研究生课程将启动解雇程序的定义 2015 Provost's memo.

对于不符合APP规定要求的学生(i.e., fails to attain a 3.到下一个完整的入学学期结束时累计平均绩点为0), the graduate program will initiate the dismissal process unless a revised APP is submitted and approved by the Graduate College. 如果部门不建议解雇，则需要修改后的APP, 并等待研究生院院长的批准, 学生将被允许继续攻读学位课程. 开除学籍是指学生因学术原因与学校分离. 被开除的学生将不允许注册课程, including registering as a non-degree student. A graduate student who is dismissed and subsequently enrolls as a non-degree-seeking graduate student, 或者作为另一个机构的研究生, may not have this coursework count toward fulfilling degree requirements should the student ever be readmitted into the same graduate program at FAU.

研究生必须在至少两个学期(秋季)注册至少1个学分, 在每个学年的春季或夏季)，以保持资格获得学位. Students who have been admitted to candidacy normally should enroll in the Thesis (6971) or Dissertation (7980) course in their departments. 尚未获得候选人资格者, but do not need to take additional courses, 应该参加一个适当的指导独立学习课程或高级研究课程. 未能连续入学的学生, as defined above, lose their eligibility for the degree. 在这种情况下，学生需要提交新的申请并支付申请费. In addition, 学生可能需要注册额外的定向独立学习学分, Thesis or Dissertation in an amount equal to the number of such credits missed while not continuously enrolled.

研究生课程的学位要求列在课程目录中 here. Program requirements for specific gradaute programs are listed in the course catelog under each college here. Graduate students should meet with their department advisors to discuss degree requirements for their programs.

For fall and spring semesters: Graduate students registered for 9 or more credits are considered full-time, registrations for 7 credits are considered 3/4-time and registrations for 5 credits are considered half-time. 夏季学期:注册6学分的研究生视为全日制学生, registrations for 5 credits are considered 3/4-time and registrations for 3 credits are considered half-time. 研究生可以申请少修学分并保持全日制研究生身份.

Graduate students who find it necessary to temporarily suspend their studies may apply for leave of absence from graduate study. 休假是指那些根本无法继续学习的学生, rather than for students who are actively working on a thesis or dissertation after completing coursework. Leave of absence is approved by the Graduate College on the basis of the recommendation of the student's faculty advisor, department chair and college dean. 为了申请休假，学生使用表格10-请求放弃大学要求.

No credit that is more than 10 years old at the time the Florida Atlantic University graduate degree is awarded may be counted toward that degree. Credits transferred into or applied to an FAU program are considered earned in the first semester of enrollment at FAU. 注意:个别研究生课程可能有更严格的信贷时间限制.

For Thesis and Dissertation Students: 所有攻读学位需要论文的研究生, dissertation or graduate thesis exhibition must register for at least one credit in the term in which the degree is to be awarded. 个别研究生学位课程可能有额外的要求.

Extensions (in one-year increments) beyond the five-year limit will be considered through the submission of a formal 表格10 -申请放弃大学要求 petition. If the student’s program coordinator, program director and/or department chair does not choose to either approve an Extension of Time (EOT), 那么该学生可能不再被KU体育官网APP的该课程录取.

Doctoral programs may accept a maximum of 36 credits earned elsewhere in an approved graduate program.
