CA TEGOR Y
I
(NON-DEGREE)
comprises students who do not express an intention to
become candidates for a master's degree in one of the programs for which
a degree or certificate is authorized, or who have been transferred to this
category from other categories as stipulated below.
Students in Category I may apply for transfer to Category III or
Category IV. Not more than 12 semester hours taken as a student in
Category I may be applied toward a master's degree unless a special
dispensation is granted by the Dean of Graduate Studies.
A student may choose to remain indefinitely in Category I (for
example, a student interested only in certification credit).
Category
I
CATEGORY
II
category comprises graduate students who in their application for admission indicated an intention to pursue a master's degree
program but whose undergraduate record showed a quality point average
lower than 2.25. If a student in this category makes an average of 3.0 or
higher in the first six to nine semester hours of graduate study at Bloomsburg State College, he/she is eligible for transfer to Categories III or IV;
otherwise, the student is transferred to Category I after nine semester
hours have been completed.
This
CATEGORY
Category
III
comprises individuals other than those in Category II
who indicated an intention to pursue an existing master's degree program and who have not yet been certified as clear of undergraduate deficiencies. Transfer to Category IV is automatic when the adviser certifies
to the graduate dean that there are no undergraduate deficiencies to be
made up for the chosen program, or when previously identified deficiencies have been successfully made up.
III
CATEGORY
IV
This category comprises graduate students who have no undergraduate deficiencies for the master's degree programs which they are pursuing.
A student must be in Category IV in order to be eligible to apply for
Admission to Candidacy for a master's degree. A student in Category IV
who has not attained Admission to Candidacy after completing 12 semester
hours of graduate work is transferred to Category I unless an extension of
time has been granted by the Dean of Graduate Studies. The request for
extension of time must certify that the delay was the result of circumstances beyond the control of the student and must be endorsed by the
student's adviser.
CA TEGOR Y V
This category comprises students who have been admitted to candidacy for a master's degree. An individual in Category V is transferred to
Category I if his cumulative quality point average falls below 3.0. or if he
has not completed his program within the time limit (see Section 2.03).

CA TEGOR Y
I
(NON-DEGREE)
comprises students who do not express an intention to
become candidates for a master's degree in one of the programs for which
a degree or certificate is authorized, or who have been transferred to this
category from other categories as stipulated below.
Students in Category I may apply for transfer to Category III or
Category IV. Not more than 12 semester hours taken as a student in
Category I may be applied toward a master's degree unless a special
dispensation is granted by the Dean of Graduate Studies.
A student may choose to remain indefinitely in Category I (for
example, a student interested only in certification credit).
Category
I
CATEGORY
II
category comprises graduate students who in their application for admission indicated an intention to pursue a master's degree
program but whose undergraduate record showed a quality point average
lower than 2.25. If a student in this category makes an average of 3.0 or
higher in the first six to nine semester hours of graduate study at Bloomsburg State College, he/she is eligible for transfer to Categories III or IV;
otherwise, the student is transferred to Category I after nine semester
hours have been completed.
This
CATEGORY
Category
III
comprises individuals other than those in Category II
who indicated an intention to pursue an existing master's degree program and who have not yet been certified as clear of undergraduate deficiencies. Transfer to Category IV is automatic when the adviser certifies
to the graduate dean that there are no undergraduate deficiencies to be
made up for the chosen program, or when previously identified deficiencies have been successfully made up.
III
CATEGORY
IV
This category comprises graduate students who have no undergraduate deficiencies for the master's degree programs which they are pursuing.
A student must be in Category IV in order to be eligible to apply for
Admission to Candidacy for a master's degree. A student in Category IV
who has not attained Admission to Candidacy after completing 12 semester
hours of graduate work is transferred to Category I unless an extension of
time has been granted by the Dean of Graduate Studies. The request for
extension of time must certify that the delay was the result of circumstances beyond the control of the student and must be endorsed by the
student's adviser.
CA TEGOR Y V
This category comprises students who have been admitted to candidacy for a master's degree. An individual in Category V is transferred to
Category I if his cumulative quality point average falls below 3.0. or if he
has not completed his program within the time limit (see Section 2.03).
