At any time during their degree program, a student who receives more than two grades of C+ or poorer and/or progress reports less than satisfactory may lose financial support and may be removed from the program at the discretion of the Graduate Committee. ( See Progress Toward Degree Expectations .)
Continuing graduate students are required to maintain at least an overall 3.00 grade point average. A 3.00 grade point average (exclusive of research, seminar and CHEM 5100) must be maintained in order to be eligible for or to continue to receive financial support (scholarship, fellowship, associateship).
A student that falls below a 3.00 grade point average will be put on probation. Failure to achieve a 3.00 grade point average after one semester of probation may result in immediate loss of financial support.
The University requires a 3.00 grade point average in coursework and also in research before a graduate degree can be awarded.
