It is expected that applicants will come into the program with basic personal computer skills and familiarity with the Web and Internet. In addition to the GRE, the Advisory Committee looks for evidence of ability to perform at the master's degree level. Applicants whose undergraduate grade point average is below 3.0 should arrange to supply additional evidence of capability. Applicants must receive and accept a formal offer of admission from the School before registering for courses. No more than 15 hours per semester or 8 hours in any single six week summer session may be taken.
Continuous enrollment is required during the fall and spring semesters.
Students unable to enroll in any fall or spring semester should first submit a written leave of absence request to the Director of the MIC program, explaining reasons for the leave and expected date of return. Leaves of absence do not extend the five-year time limit for completing the MIC degree. The maximum time to complete the degree will be five years. Waivers of Required Courses Courses designated as required must be successfully completed for the MIC degree. Students requesting waivers of required courses must submit a written request to the Advisory Committee.
