Graduate Registration Continuation (GRC) - Graduate Courses

GRC 795 Cr.0

Extended Continuous Registration

After completing two enrollments in GRC 799, students who are still actively engaged in research or writing and need to maintain access to university resources must continue term-to-term enrollment by registering for GRC 795 (Fall, Spring, Summer) for zero credits and paying a special course fee equal to 50% of the cost of one resident graduate credit. Enrollment in GRC 795 will provide the student with continued access to university email, library privileges, and buildings. Students register for GRC 795 only when they are not registered for any other credits. Repeatable - maximum 12 enrollments. Prerequisite: two semesters of GRC 799. Offered Fall, Spring, Summer.

GRC 798 Cr.0

Interrupted Registration

This registration is required for students who failed to meet the University's Graduate Research and Terminal Project Completion Policy (did not register for GRC 799 immediately upon completing all degree requirements in an approved program of study except for thesis, comprehensive examination, seminar paper, or other culminating project). In order to comply with the policy, students must register for GRC 798 for zero credits and pay a special course fee equal to the cost of three resident graduate credits. Prerequisite: approval by graduate program director and reentry to former academic program; approved reentry to the university. Offered Fall, Spring, Summer.

GRC 799 Cr.0

Continuous Registration

Once having completed all degree requirements in an approved program of study except for the thesis, seminar paper, comprehensive examination, or other culminating graduate projects, students must maintain continuous term-to-term enrollment (excluding winter intersession). Students meet this requirement by registering for GRC 799 for zero credits and paying a special course fee equal to the cost of one resident graduate credit. Students who require only one term after their regular coursework to complete their thesis or culminating project need to register for only for one (1) term of GRC 799. Students who need more than one (1) term after their regular coursework to complete their thesis or culminating project need to register for two and only two (2) continuous terms of GRC 799. Students who need more than two (2) terms after their regular coursework to complete their thesis or culminating project and who need continued access to university faculty, technology, facilities, and the library must register for GRC 795 each term, excluding winter. Students must register for GRC 799 (Fall, Spring) immediately following completion of all coursework. Students register for GRC 799 only when they are not registered for any other credits. To maintain access to university resources (e.g. building access) during the summer, a student must be registered for GRC 799 for either that summer or the following fall. Repeatable - maximum two enrollments. Offered Fall, Spring, Summer.
