As a degree student, you are required to be enrolled continuously until you complete your entire program and graduate. Should you find it necessary to interrupt your program of study due to personal hardship, illness or special circumstances, it will be necessary to apply for an extension of your program in writing to the registrar. Each individual request for an extension of a program will be examined and ruled on by the administrative office in Aztec and all rulings will be considered final. Degree students are subject to the catalogue requirements at the time of their enrollment. Re-enrollments are subject to the cost and requirements in the catalogue currently in use.
All incoming credits are subject to the requirements in the current published catalogue.
Under the guidance of your faculty advisor, you will prepare an independent study project for review by the Dean of the College in which you are registered. Following the Dean's approval of your project, you will continue working with your faculty advisor until the thesis is submitted, revised and completed. All theses must be submitted in duplicate in a publishable, typed format. The thesis must demonstrate a mastery in your field of study worthy of the degree you are seeking. The student maintains the copyright to their thesis and open book exams.
