Evaluation and Due Process

Graduate students are expected to maintain sufficient progress toward a degree. At midterm and at the end of each semester, the faculty reports academic or behavioral problems to the Department of Nursing’s Admissions, Progression, and Graduate Committee (APG). Faculty consults with other members of the graduate faculty and/or clinical/practicum preceptor about the academic, personal, and professional quality of performance of the student. Any student not showing progress toward completing the program and whose academic performance or professional performance does not meet requirements may be subject to probationary status or dismissal from the program.
