Continuous
Enrollment
Students in
the PhD program in Reading must follow the University regulations regarding
continuous enrollment:
"All students enrolled in doctoral
programs must maintain continuous registration for each fall and spring session
(except for periods of official leave of absence prior to candidacy) until
they have completed all program requirements. Minimum registration consists
of 3 credits of approved course work, registration for dissertation load (899
courses only), or registration for other field work courses that have been
approved as full-time by the Dean of Graduate Studies or the Graduate Academic
Council.
Summer sessions
registration cannot be accepted in lieu of registration for fall and spring
sessions. A student who neither registers for each fall and spring session
nor has received an official leave of absence is subject to termination unless
good cause not to do so is shown by the student after notification of such
pending action." (excerpt from Graduate Bulletin)
Note that students with assistantships must enroll for a minimum of 9 credits per semester (Fall and Spring only). International students who are full-time must enroll for 12 credits per semester. An international student with an assistantship enrolls for 9 credits minimum (as opposed to 12 credits).
