Forms
Degree Plan Form- This is the official online form that students must use to submit their degree plan.
(Request/Announcement for) Final Exam Form- This is the form that students must use for scheduling both the final oral exam for the Master's and the final defense for the Ph.D.
Graduate Assistant Leave Form- If a student will miss their TA duties due to a family emergency or university business (ex: attending a conference), they must fill out this form. The form must be signed by the instructors they are TAing for and submitted to the Graduate Office for approval.
Letter of Intent- If a student wishes to continue on into the PhD program after completing their MS, they must fill out and submit this form to the Graduate Office during the semester they will be graduating with their MS.
Petition Form- If students wish to change their degree plan, program or department, they must submit a petition form.
Preliminary Exam Checklist and Report Form- These are the forms that students must use for doing their Preliminary Exam for the Ph.D. degree. Each form should be printed out on it's own sheet of paper (not double-sided). The Checklist gets filled out by the student prior to the prelim but does not have to be submitted to OGS before the prelim. The Report form gets filled out by the student's Committee at the prelim. Then both forms get submitted together to OGS within 10 business days of the date they did their prelim.
Proposal Title Page Form- Thesis-option MS and Ph.D. students must complete this form to accompany their research proposal.
Variable Credit Course Form- Students who wish to enroll in directed study Math 685 or research hours Math 691 must complete this form with their supervising faculty member. It is important that each student complete this form for each 685 and/or 691 course that they want to take and to bring the form to the departmental Graduate Office. The Graduate Office will then put in a request to the Registrar's Office for a special section number for each student to register under. Students can not register for the generic section number listed in the class schedule-- a special section must be created by the Registrar's Office which is tied to the faculty member the student will be working with.
