Spring 2012 Priority Registration Deadlines

Continuous progress is expected every semester as appropriate for the graduate program, from admission through graduation, until all requirements for the degree are met. Check with your graduate program for their specific requirements. For example, students enrolled in graduate programs offering courses only in summer should be continuously registered for every Summer semester until degree requirements are completed. Students enrolling for Fall and Spring semesters are expected to enroll every fall and spring until requirements are completed.
To make Continuous Progress in their graduate program, students have the following options:

• Registering for at least one graduate level credit applicable to their graduate degree, or
• Paying the continuous registration fee (by registering for Extended Registration CRN) to remain active in the graduate program although not registered for any courses.
• Adhere to the continuous registration policy established by the specific college, school or department. See your program advisor for details.

The continuous registration fee may be paid during each semester's late registration period or in the Cashier's Office up until the end of late registration.

Students who need to temporarily suspend their studies must apply for a Leave of Absence through their advisor and committee chair.
