Full-Time Graduate Study Extension

0 units

PhD students may register for zero-unit course EGS 9002, which indicates full-time engagement with research or dissertation writing, once they have exhaused their program length. Up to two semesters of graduate student extension may be allowed. Students may not enter this status directly following a leave of absence. It is only available for students entering from full-time status. Students must be approved for EGS 9002 by their advisors and be making satisfactory progress toward their degree. Departmental approval and approval by Graduate Student Services is also required. Students who do not complete their program after two semesters of EGS 9002 must either withdraw from the program or be designated as Degree Candidacy Extended.
