The SOMD adheres to the Division of Graduate Studies’ Continuous Enrollment and On-Leave Policies. Review those policies at the appropriate links below:

In addition, students must notify the SOMD Graduate Office and their faculty advisor in a timely manner of any leaves they plan to take. Failing to notify them may result in the denial of the leave request.

Students living elsewhere while working on dissertations, theses, or lecture documents must be registered for a minimum of three (3) thesis/dissertation/research credits if they are using university faculty or facilities for degree-related activities.
