M.P.A. student review process
Each September, the academic history of all M.P.A. students will be reviewed. If you have not completed a course in more than one calendar year, you will be sent a letter providing you with the options of applying for readmission or withdrawing from the program. If you choose to withdraw, please provide your reasons for withdrawing. If you are inactive and would like to be readmitted, please complete and submit an Application for Graduate Readmission.
If you complete your first course five years prior to the audit, you will receive a written request to meet with your advisor. If you and your advisor determine it is not possible to complete the program within six years of finishing the first course, you may submit a Graduate Program Degree Time Extension Form.
Students Accepted on Conditional Admission Status
If you were admitted on a conditional status, your academic history will be reviewed within two months of the end of each semester and session. You will receive written notification when you have either been removed from conditional status or been dismissed from the M.P.A. program due to failure to meet the established requirements.
