Termination of Studies


Graduate School-Camden

Students may be required to terminate their graduate studies and withdraw from the Graduate School-Camden if they fail to maintain satisfactory academic or professional standards in any phase of their graduate programs. Conditions imposed at the time of admission must be satisfied by each student. Nonadherence to the schedule of Time Limits for Degrees may constitute a basis for termination.

When such problems occur, the program notifies the student in writing of its concern about the student's performance. Such a warning specifies the source of the concern, the applicable program or graduate school rules, and the planned action. Where appropriate (e.g., during that phase of the program in which students are enrolled in regular academic courses) a probationary period of one semester is normal. Following such a probationary period, a student who fails to meet the provisions of the warning is subject to dismissal. In cases of extremely poor performance, the program faculty may determine that a probationary period is not justified and may move directly to dismissal.

Satisfactory academic progress is also expected of students who have satisfied course requirements and who are working to fulfill other requirements for the degree. Any student past coursework who fails to make adequate progress toward degree may be required to terminate his or her graduate studies and withdraw from the Graduate School-Camden. As above, when such problems occur, the program notifies the student in writing of its concern about the student's performance. Such a warning specifies the source of the concern, the applicable program or graduate school rules, and the planned action. Any student who fails to meet the provisions of the warning is subject to dismissal.

When the program's decision for termination is reached, the graduate program director communicates to the associate dean of the Graduate School-Camden in writing the specific reasons involved, all warnings communicated to the student, the faculty procedures, and actions leading to the dismissal.

International students are required to make normal progress toward their degree in order to maintain their legal status. International students facing serious academic problems that could lead to probation and/or termination are urged to consult with the Office of International Students and Global Programs as soon as they are aware of such problems.
