Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences (PCHCS)—Department of Speech-Language Pathology 2023–2024 260 Continuing Services SLP.D. students are allotted seven years from the initial term of enrollment in which to complete all program and degree requirements. Students unable to complete all program and degree requirements within this seven-year time frame will be subject to dismissal. Students who experience unexpected extenuating circumstances that inhibit their ability to complete all program/degree requirements within seven years may request an extension of time of up to one year (maximum). Request must be received prior to the expiration of the seven-year time frame for the program/degree completion, for consideration. Students must be in good academic and financial standing to be eligible for an extension. An additional and final extension of time of up to one year maximum may be requested beyond the initial one-year extension for students who have achieved an approved applied dissertation proposal (required for additional time beyond an initial extension). Requests must be received prior to the expiration of the initial extension for consideration. Students must also be in good academic and financial standing to be eligible for an additional extension. No additional time beyond a second extension is available, and students will be subject to dismissal. Academic Withdrawals Unless prior approval or a leave of absence has been granted, students who do not enroll in any classes for two consecutive semesters may be administratively withdrawn (WU) from the SLP.D. program. If a student is administratively withdrawn from the program, the student would need to reapply for entrance into the SLP.D. program. Withdrawal from a Course A request for withdrawal from a course shall be made in writing to the program director up to 21 days prior to the end of the term in which the student is enrolled. The student may request withdrawal only if the student is in good standing. To withdraw from a course, it is not sufficient to stop attending class or inform the instructor of your intentions to withdraw. The student must request to withdraw from the course in writing. A withdrawal from a course requires approval from the program director. A grade of W (withdrawal) or WP (withdraw passing) will be recorded. The grade of WP will be replaced by an earned grade only if the student retakes the course. Unofficial, late, or poor standing withdrawals may result in a grade of WF (withdraw failing).
