2.2. Conditional Standing

Students in conditional standing do not meet all requirements for admission or have deficiencies in prerequisite course work; however, they show potential for successful graduate study.

• Each program defines specific conditions for students to transition from conditional to full graduate standing.
• Students admitted under conditional status are automatically placed on academic warning until the conditions of admission are met (see Academic Standing).
• Students with an undergraduate CGPA below 3.0 are automatically placed in conditional standing by the Graduate College.
  • Condition: Earn a 3.0 or higher CGPA in the first nine didactic graduate credits.
• Additional Conditions: Programs may impose further conditions.
• Credit Limitations: Conditional students, except those in an accelerated degree program, are limited to earning 12 graduate credits before fulfilling admission conditions.
