For a student whose program includes a thesis, the thesis must be approved by the chairperson of the student's committee and accepted by the other members of the panel. The final draft of the thesis should be prepared in strict accordance with the instructions printed in the Mason Gross School of the Arts Thesis Form booklet available in the Office of the Dean. After the thesis has been accepted by the committee, two copies (three copies for the theater arts M.F.A. degree) must be submitted to the dean of Mason Gross School of the Arts no later than four weeks before commencement (or no later than the announced deadline for October- and January-dated diplomas).
