The Degree Evaluation and the
Masters' Degree Plan
- The "Degree Evaluation" found under the Advisor Menu in JSU Paws will replace "Form I: The Degree Plan" for the Division of Graduate Studies. A "Degree Evaluation" must be attached to the "Application for Graduate Degree Candidacy".
- A Graduate Degree Plan MUST be completed within the
FIRST MONTH of enrollment in a degree program. This plan must be
made with the advice and concurrence of the major advisor and the
graduate committee. Only courses appearing on the approved
program will be counted toward fulfilling degree requirements.
Changes in the program may be made, using standard change forms, with
the approval of the same persons who approved the original program (or
their appropriate successors).
