The plan of study should be completed and submitted to the Office of the Registrar when not more than 18 credits
of course work to be offered for the degree have been completed. The successful completion of all work indicated
on the plan of study is a fundamental prerequisite for the conferring of the degree. The plan of study must be
signed by the student and by each member of the advisory committee before submission to the Office of the
Registrar for final approval. When fully approved, copies of the plan of study are scanned and e-mailed to the
student, major advisor, and department administrator.
