Students should retain marked-up pages and, bring them in with revised document for a later visit. A third copy for binding- is strongly recommended if the student desires a personal copy. One extra copy of abstract and approval page. A form used by UMI will be completed at that time. The NSF form, Survey of Earned Doctorates, will also be completed at that time.
NJIT policy requires grades of B or better for graduation.
The Graduate Studies Office will forward the original and the copies to the Library who will follow through,with the bindery, receive the bound volumes, and notify students by letter that the bound documents have been received. Allow a minimum 6-8 weeks time period for the receipt of the bound volumes to be available at the Library. For dissertations only , the time period is usually longer, since the original is first mailed to UMI by the Graduate Studies Office for copyrighting and microfilming. Once UMI sends the original back to the Library for follow-up with the bindery, all of the dissertation copies are then sent out for binding.
