Date Implemented: January 02, 2010
Date Reviewed: April 30, 2013
Individuals may apply to complete a second MA or MS graduate degree in a different discipline. The requirements for the additional degree must include at least 24 non-duplicated graduate credits and must meet all requirements of the program’s accrediting body. Previously completed graduate credits older than 8 years may not be applied toward meeting requirements for the additional degree.
Important Note: In the absence of a more stringent policy at the school or college level the University Graduate Academic Policies apply. Should a graduate program not have a specific policy or should there be omissions or gaps in the policy for a specific graduate school program, the University Graduate Policy shall govern.
The Graduate Academic Policies are the responsibility of the Graduate Curriculum Committee Convener. For additions or revisions contact gradcurriculum@stthomas.edu.
