Diagnostic Examination
A student should pass a written diagnostic examination.
The examination should be passed no later than the end
of the second semester (not counting summer) after admission into Ph.D. program.
See Comprehensive/Diagnostic Examination section of the handbook for
details.
There are three outcomes for taking the diagnostic exam:
- Pass at the PhD level,
- Fail with one repeat,
- Fail with no repeat (Student will be asked to leave the Ph.D. program).
The Exam may be repeated at most ONCE.
Upon successful completion of the diagnostic examination
a research guidance committee will be formed as described below.
