What are the G P A requirements for graduate students?
Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Majors
Students are required to maintain a 3.0 G P A in order to graduate.
Students whose cumulative G P A* falls below 3.0 will not be permitted to enroll in off-campus practicum under any circumstance.
Only graduate courses taken in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences and approved graduate transfer courses in speech and hearing will be used to calculate the grade point average for graduation purposes.
Graduate students are expected to exhibit superior scholastic and clincal or scientific ability. Additionally, graduate students must exhibit personal characteristics that will enable them to deal effectively with the public and to function well in clinical settings.
Faculty and staff will periodically review the progress of graduate students and may request hearings for individual students to discuss their progress. Off-campus practicum assignments are only recommended when the faculty and staff are confident that a student possesses the skills, knowledge, and professionalism necessary to represent the Department in a positive manner.
Students must complete course requirements prior to off-campus placement. Once a student has agreed to an off-campus assignment, changes are equivalent to breaking an employment contract and are not acceptable professional behavior. Students may appeal off-campus placement decisions to the faculty.
