If another course is failed or incompletes are again received at the end of that semester, the student may be dropped from the school. Failure in two or more courses results in automatic dismissal from the school. For more details, see the Student Manual section which deals with academic standards and satisfactory progress. A student's signature on any examination, course assignment, or degree requirement is assumed by the school to guarantee that the thoughts and expressions therein not expressly credited to another are literally the student's own. Evidence to the contrary, verified by the Office of the Dean, may result in failure in the course, disciplinary dismissal, or such other penalties as are deemed proper.
Graduate study requires excellence of character as much as excellence of intellect.
Maintenance of good standing while a student at the school is, in part, dependent on developing and maintaining standards of ethical and professional conduct.
