Requirements
Students are responsible for meeting
degree requirements in force at the
time of their first enrollment as matric-
ulated students. Changes to the struc-
ture of a program will be applied in
such a way as to avoid increasing the
number of credits required of students
who have started taking courses in the
program. If degree requirements are
changed following matriculation, the
student has the option of satisfying
original or new requirements.
Students who are dismissed for aca-
demic reasons may be subject to new
regulations depending on how long
after dismissal the student returns and
such other factors as may be taken into
account by the Graduate Scholastic
Standards Committee.
Please consult the appropriate
departmental listing in this Bulletin for
specific degree and advanced certificate
requirements, including number of
semester hours required for the pro-
gram, mandatory courses, etc.
General requirements are as follows: 
Minimum Grade Average of B (3.0): All
programs must be completed with a
minimum average of at least B (3.0). At
the completion of the total credits allot-
ted to a program, if a student does not
have a 3.0 average and wishes to regis-
ter for additional courses in order to
attempt to raise the grade-point aver-
age, permission to do so must be
obtained from the Office of Graduate
Studies. Such courses must be taken at
Queens College. For information on
probationary status and dismissal, see
page 25.
Time Limit: All programs must be com-
pleted within the time limits permitted
for each degree and advanced certifi-
cate program. The time limit for com-
pletion of all requirements for the
Master of Arts,  Master of Arts in Lib-
eral Studies, Master of Arts in the
Social Sciences, Master of Fine Arts, or
Master of Library Science degree is
four years. The time limit for the Mas-
ter of Science in Education degree is
five years. For time limits for the cer-
tificate programs, consult the appropri-
ate departmental listing in this
Bulletin. Transfer credits or credits
taken as a non-matriculant that have
been approved by the department must
have been taken within the time limit.
Requests for extensions of time must be
submitted to the Office of Graduate
Studies.
Credit Requirement: The number of
credits required for Master’s degree
programs varies by program and
ranges from 30 to 60. The number of
credits required for certificate and
diploma programs also varies. Please
consult the appropriate departmental
listing in this Bulletin for the number
of credits each program requires.
Thesis and/or Comprehensive Exami-
nation Requirement(s): Consult the
appropriate departmental listing in
this Bulletin to determine if a thesis
and/or comprehensive examination con-
stitutes part of the requirements for
the degree or advanced certificate.

mer Session II. Graduate courses also
