Continuous registration is required in each fall and spring term until students complete the program. Be sure to register for at least one credit hour (PHC 615/616) under your graduate program each semester (PharmD/MS: please be sure to register under graduate and not pharmacy). For international students, summer enrollment is also required if a student is using the summer semester as their last semester.

Exemptions: 

If continuous registration is not possible, the student must secure an approved leave of absence. Students may not be on a leave of absence during the semester in which a degree is to be conferred. 

In rare instances, a student may petition for a waiver of the continuous registration requirement for the semester immediately prior to degree conferral. The Graduate School will consider if the student has an incomplete from a previous semester, if the student is an approved candidate for degree conferral, will not be using any university services or faculty time and has submitted all required conferral materials to the Graduate School prior to the first day of the semester.
