Grades
A grade of B or better is expected
in all coursework. However, at the department's discretion, as many as 8 credits of C grades may be considered for meeting the
requirements. Grades are reviewed by the graduate faculty each semester.
Students may be required to withdraw from Mason Gross School of the Arts if they do not maintain
satisfactory academic or professional standards in any phase of the
program. Academic dismissal may be appealed in writing to the
Scholastic Standing Committee of the school.
