There are also a number of combined bachelor's and accelerated master's degree programs for academically-strong undergraduates with a commitment to learning advanced skills in a specialized field of study. AP.6.1 Student Classification Students may access graduate classes and programs according to their status as non-degree or enrolled degree students. For more information, see Graduate Admissions . AP.6.1.1 Continuous Registration Requirement All graduate students in a master's, specialist, or doctoral degree program must register and pay any associated tuition and fees each term, including summer if required by the program, until the degree is awarded. Graduate students who register for one 7.5- or 8-week session within a term fulfill the requirement. Graduate students enrolled in 799 and 999 should refer to AP.6.9.3 Master's Thesis and AP.6.10.6 Dissertation Registration (998, 999) respectively for additional stipulations. All graduate students must have active registration status in the term of graduation. A graduate student is ultimately responsible for registering or requesting the appropriate leave prior to the start of the term. A master's, specialist, or doctoral degree student who does not register and who has not requested and received a graduate Leave of Absence or Permission to Study Elsewhere will be notified by the University Registrar two business weeks before the first day of classes that they must register for the upcoming semester. If the student does not register, they must request permission to re-enroll in accordance with the guidelines outlined in AP.6.4.3 Permission to Re-Enroll . AP.6.1.2 Institutional Credits Graduate students at George Mason are required to successfully complete more than half of the minimum required credits towards their certificate or degree program at George Mason. See AP.6.5 Previously Earned Graduate Credit opportunities. AP.6.2 Full-Time and Half-Time Status Classification Graduate students are considered full-time if they are enrolled in at least 9 graduate credits per semester or hold a full-time assistantship (total 20 hours a week) and are enrolled in at least 6 graduate credits per semester. Graduate students are considered half-time if they are enrolled in at least 4.5 graduate credits per semester. In accordance with AP.1.3 Academic Load , the maximum number of credits a graduate degree-seeking student may take per semester is 12 while the maximum for a Non-Degree Graduate student is 11. Students must obtain permission from their local academic unit prior to registering for more than the maximum allowable credits in a semester unless enrolled in a graduate program or pathway that requires registration above the maximum. Graduate degree-seeking and Non-Degree Graduate students in programs or pathways that require registration for more than the maximum allowable credits in one or more semesters are notified of the requirement by the program or pathway during the admissions process. Graduate programs and pathways that exceed the maximum allowable credits in one or more terms are also noted in the university catalog. Master's students who are enrolled in thesis credits are considered full-time if they are enrolled in at least three credits of 799 per semester. Master's students may enroll in 1 credit of 799 and be considered in status (either full-time or half-time) only if the student, along with their advisor and local academic unit (LAU) chair or designee, certify each semester that the student has completed 3 credits of 799 and is working full-time or half-time on the thesis. To be considered full-time or half-time while enrolled in 1 credit of 799, the student is responsible for ensuring this certification is completed and submitted to the Office of the University Registrar prior to the first day of classes each semester. See AP.6.9.3 Master's Thesis for more information regarding 799. Doctoral students, who have completed required coursework and are enrolled in dissertation credits (either 998 or 999), are considered full-time if they are enrolled in at least 3 credits per semester, regardless of whether they hold an assistantship. Doctoral students are considered in status (either full-time or half-time) if they are registered for at least 1 credit of 999 and the student, along with their advisor and LAU chair or designee, certify each semester that the student has advanced to candidacy, has completed the minimum number of credits required by the university and their degree program, including the minimum number of credits of 998 and 999, and that they are working full-time or half-time on the dissertation. To be considered full-time or half-time while enrolled in 1 credit of 999, the student is responsible for ensuring this certification is completed and submitted to the Office of the University Registrar prior to the first day of classes each semester. See AP.6.10.6 Dissertation Registration for more information regarding 998 and 999. Different requirements for full-time and half-time status may apply for tuition, verification, loan deferral, and financial aid. Contact Student Accounts , the Office of the University Registrar , and Student Financial Aid , respectively, for more information. Note that the official designation of time status for all students is determined by the Office of the University Registrar. AP.6.3 Academic Advising When a student is admitted to graduate study, the student is assigned a faculty advisor by the academic program responsible for the student's program of study. Registration for newly admitted graduate students, as well as continuing students, begins with a visit to the student's academic advisor. There, the student can obtain information about specific courses and degree requirements and develop an individual program of study. Progress in an approved program of study is the shared responsibility of the student and the advisor. The graduate student is responsible for compliance with the policies and procedures of the college, school, or institute, and all applicable departmental requirements that govern the individual program of study. Students should consult with their advisors before registration each semester. AP.6.4 Student Status AP.6.4.1 Non-Degree Student Status Students may pursue graduate study in non-degree status at George Mason. Such students who wish to pursue a degree or certificate program are encouraged to apply for program admission as soon as possible. All program admission requirements must be met. All students must enroll in at least one credit after admission to the degree or certificate program. A maximum of 12 non-degree credits can be applied toward a degree or certificate. Graduate credits taken in non-degree status may not count towards more than two George Mason degree and/or certificate programs. See AP.6.5.3 Graduate Credit Earned at George Mason . AP.6.4.2 Removing Provisional Qualifier For policies concerning students admitted provisionally, see Graduate Admission Policies . AP.6.4.3 Permission to Re-Enroll Permission to re-enroll in a program must be obtained by master's, specialist, and doctoral degree students who have not enrolled in at least 1 credit for one or more consecutive semesters at George Mason and do not have a university approved leave of absence or permission to study elsewhere. Students in a graduate certificate program must obtain permission to re-enroll in a program after not enrolling in at least 1 credit for two or more consecutive semesters at George Mason. A program may allow a student to petition to graduate under any catalog in effect while the student was enrolled. All program components, including concentrations, must appear in the catalog for the year selected. The final decision as to catalog year rests with the unit dean or director. The Graduate Re-enrollment form is available from the Office of the University Registrar. AP.6.4.4 Voluntary Resignation from Graduate Academic Program Degree-seeking students may officially resign from their current academic program with the approval of their program chair or designee and the dean or director of the college/school. The Voluntary Resignation form must then be submitted to the Office of the University Registrar for transcript notation. Students who resign after the drop period may either complete the courses they are currently enrolled in or immediately withdraw, which will result in grades of W on the student's transcript for that academic term. All students that have resigned will be removed from any future registered courses. Program resignation is final in that the transcript notation shall not be removed. Students that attempt to return to an academic program must formally apply for admission. See AP.6.6.3 Subsequent Admission to Graduate Study at George Mason for further information. Students that are eligible for graduate academic termination may not resign without first obtaining approval through an academic termination policy exception request. See AP.6.6.2 Academic Termination for further information. Students who have not resigned or been terminated from their academic program must meet all applicable time limits. See AP.6 Graduate Academic Policies for further information. AP.6.4.4.1 Voluntary Resignation and Transfer to a Lower-Level Graduate Degree or Certificate Program Degree-seeking status students resigning from their current academic program, before reaching their original degree time limit, may find that they can complete the requirements for a lower-level graduate program within the same college/school. Such graduate students may request to transfer into the lower gradaute degree or certificate program. The time limit for the new, lower-level program starts from the former program's admit term. If a student has not reached the time limit for their current academic program but would exceed the time limit of the new program upon transfer, approval of the resignation and transfer is contingent upon approval of a time limit extension for the new program. A time limit extension request may only be considered for approval if the student fulfills all degree or certificate requirements for the new program prior to submission of the voluntary resignation and transfer request. A student that is eligible for academic termination from their current program may not voluntarily resign and transfer to a lower-level program without first proceeding through the academic termination policy exception process. See AP.6.6.2 Academic Termination for further information. Approval from the new program's program chair or designee and the dean or director of the respective college/school is required on the appropriate form for any voluntary resignation and transfer. Programs may reject coursework that is not sufficiently current. Degree Conferral Students must be officially transferred through the Office of the University Registrar into the new program and have the program reflected on their academic record prior to filing an application for graduation. All applicable degree or certificate program requirements must be met to have the new degree or certificate conferred. AP.6.4.5 Graduate Student Parental Leave of Absence All graduate students actively enrolled in a degree or certificate program and who intend to become parents via birth, adoption, foster or custodial care placement are eligible to take a Parental Leave of Absence (PLoA) from their program in a prospective semester term, or prospective summer term if the summer enrollment is required by the academic program. The use of this policy does not impact the availability of a non-academic withdrawal or other protected accommodation outside of the PLoA period. Students are referred to the Office of Access, Compliance, and Community (OACC) and their College/School Dean's Office for further information. Students needing a withdrawal of accommodation due to pregnancy during an active term are referred to OACC . Graduate students who need to take a leave due to medical or general reasons should refer to AP.6.4.7 Graduate Student Medical Leave of Absence or AP.6.4.6 Graduate Student General Leave of Absence , respectively. Students who need to take a leave due to U.S. military service should refer to the Military Activation Policy . Students who need to take a leave prior to their first term of enrollment, and are not Bachelor's/Accelerated Master's students covered by AP.6.7 Bachelor's/Accelerated Master's Degrees , should refer to the deferral policy. Scope This policy applies to all graduate students regardless of whether the student is the birth parent or non-birth parent. Students who are eligible for graduate academic termination under AP.6.6.2 Academic Termination must first obtain an approval of an academic policy exception or appeal. Specifications A PLoA is taken, at a minimum, one semester term at a time, or one summer term if the summer enrollment is required by the academic program. A PLoA that extends beyond one semester or summer term requires an academic policy exception from the Graduate Division. A PLoA cannot be taken while in an active term or for a term that has already ended. The approved PLoA term must be taken in its entirety as one event. The student may schedule the approved PLoA to begin up to six months after the anticipated birth/adoption/placement of the child. A PLoA can only be used once per child. Simultaneous births or placements, or any extensions beyond the initial term, are treated as one event. A copy of applicable documentation will need to be presented by the student to the Graduate Division once available. Any time taken for a PLoA is counted towards the one-year limit of a GLA under AP.6.4.6 Graduate Student General Leave of Absence. (e.g., one semester of PLoA counts as one semester of GLA). The student's time limit to degree completion, as applicable under AP.6.8 Requirements for Graduate Certificates , AP.6.9 Requirements for Master's Degrees , AP.6.10 Requirements for Doctoral Degrees , and AP.6.11 Requirements for Specialist Degrees will be extended to include the length of an approved PLoA. Use of this policy may be considered in the review of any exception requests and appeals for the time limit to degree completion policy. Student Notification Procedures See here for information on the procedure for notifying George Mason of the intent to take a PLoA. The PLoA process is initiated by the graduate student submitting a PLoA request form prior to the start of the term for which they want to take a leave. Requests for a particular academic term will not be accepted on or after the first day of the term. A graduate student is not considered to be on an official leave unless they have received the notification from the University Registrar. The student is responsible for any required notification of entities external to George Mason, such as fellowship agencies or employer subsidy programs. Expectations A student may not register for any courses at George Mason, nor at any other institution, while on a PLoA. However, incomplete (IN) coursework is still expected to be submitted by approved university deadlines. Students are not required nor expected to conduct additional academic work or research towards degree requirements during the PLoA. Students shall maintain access to their George Mason email account and may, under certain circumstances, be eligible to maintain access to George Mason student health insurance. Contact Student Health Services for more information. Students on a PLoA are not registered; therefore some university services and resources may no longer be available while on leave. Students are exempt from continuous registration requirements under AP.6.1.1 Continuous Registration Requirement , and, as applicable, AP.6.10.6 Dissertation Registration (998, 999) or AP.6.9.3 Master's Thesis during the approved PLoA period. Return Any student on a PLoA who does not obtain an extension or return and register by the add deadline in the term after the approved time period that a PLoA expires should refer to AP.6.4.3 Permission to Re-Enroll for guidance regarding their return. The student will have their time limit to degree continue, and all applicable continuous registration requirements stated will resume. Faculty, student applicants, and staff are encouraged to work together in order to facilitate the PLoA process and ensure students return to their same time to degree completion status as before the PLoA. Students returning from a PLoA are strongly encouraged to contact their academic program before their return. Exception Request The Graduate Division shall review and approve student requests for an exception to the requirements of this policy, including requests to extend such leave for one additional term, as appropriate to the student’s academic program calendar. Requests for an exception to extend a leave must be submitted prior to the start of the desired additional term for which they would otherwise return from leave. The maximum period allowed for a PLoA shall not exceed one academic year (fall, spring, and summer, if summer enrollment is required by the academic program) or four consecutive 8-week sessions (six consecutive 8-week sessions if summer enrollment is required by the academic program), as appropriate to the student’s academic program. If an exception to any part of this policy is desired, see here for further information. Should a student’s PLoA policy exception request be denied by the Graduate Division, the student shall have one level of appeal to the Graduate Academic Appeals Committee (GAAC). See here for more information. Other Provisions Students receiving financial aid should consult with the Mason Student Services Center to determine any financial impact before a PLoA form is submitted. When contemplating a leave of absence, graduate students are advised to consult with the sources of their funding to determine whether a leave may involve a long-term financial loss. Per university policy, non-enrolled students, including those taking leave under this policy, may not continue to hold any existing university funded assistantships, fellowships, and/or scholarships that is dependent on student enrollment status. However, their funding may be resumed upon return at the discretion of the funding authority and in compliance with all applicable university policies and procedures. As academic programs and financial aid packages may be constructed and sequenced over a period of years, individual interruptions to the normal sequence of academic progress and scheduled employment may result in a loss of future funding and a slower time to completion of degree. Graduate assistants holding employment positions funded by George Mason are referred to the Graduate Student Hiring Rules & Procedures for further information. This policy does not address any employment, scholarships or fellowships that are funded by entities external to the university. Students on or applying for a Change of Status to an F-1 or J-1 visa must first consult with the Office of International Programs and Services to discuss the impact of such a leave on the student’s status in the United States and any additional requirements. AP.6.4.6 Graduate Student General Leave of Absence A graduate student may experience life events that negatively impact the student's time and capacity to devote to their educational program. All graduate students actively enrolled in a master's, specialist, or doctoral degree program who have been registered for at least one term or equivalent for their academic program and are considered in good standing are eligible to take a General Leave of Absence (GLA) from their program in a prospective term. The use of this policy does not impact the availability of a non-academic withdrawal outside fo the GLA period. Graduate students who need to take a leave due to becoming parents or for medical reasons should refer to AP.6.4.5 Graduate Student Parental Leave of Absence and AP.6.4.7 Graduate Student Medical Leave of Absence , respectively. Students who need to take a leave due to U.S. military service should refer to the Military Activation Policy . Students who need to take a leave prior to their first term of enrollment, and are not Bachelor's/Accelerated Master's students covered by AP.6.7 Bachelor's/Accelerated Master's Degrees , should refer to the deferral policy. Specifications A GLA is taken, at a minimum, one semester term at a time, or one summer term if the summer enrollment is required by the academic program and cannot exceed a total of one year taken over teh course of a student's program. Students whose expected leave will extend beyond the maximum time should resign from their program and reapply when capable of returning to active graduate study. A GLA cannot be taken while in an active term, for a term that has already ended, or in the last term prior to a student's planned degree conferral or time-to-degree deadline. Students needing to leave during an active term should refer to AP.1.6 Withdrawal . Any time taken for a Medical Leave of Absence or Parental Leave of Absence is counted towards the one-year GLA limit. The student's time limit to degree completion, as applicable under AP.6.9 Requirements for Master's Degrees , AP.6.10 Requirements for Doctoral Degrees , and AP.6.11 Requirements for Specialist Degrees , will be extended to include the length of an approved GLA. Use of this policy may be considered in the review of any exception requests and appeals for the time limit to degree completion policy. Student Notification Procedures See here for information on the procedures for notifying George Mason of the intent to take a GLA. The GLA process is initiated by the graduate student submitting a GLA request form to their program contact prior to the start of the term for which they want to take a leave. Requests for a particular academic term will not be accepted on or after the first day of the term. A graduate student is not considered to be on an official leave unless they have received the notification from the University Registrar. The student is responsible for any required notification of entities external to George Mason, such as fellowship agencies or employer subsidy programs. Expectations A student may not register for any courses at George Msaon, nor at any other institution, while on a GLA. However, any incomplete (IN) coursework is still expected to be submitted by approved university deadlines. Students are not required nor expected to conduct additional academic work or esearch towards degree requirements during the GLA. Students shall maintain access to their George Mason e-mail account and may, under certain circumstances, be eligible to maintain access to George Mason student health insurance.

As academic programs and financial aid packages may be constructed and sequenced over a period of years, individual interruptions to the normal sequence of academic progress and scheduled employment may result in a loss of future funding and a slower time to completion of degree. Graduate assistants holding employment positions funded by George Mason are referred to the Graduate Student Hiring Rules & Procedures for further information. This policy does not address any employment, scholarships, or fellowships that are funded by entities external to the university. Students on or applying for a Change of Status to an F-1 or J-1 visa must consult with the Office of International Programs and Services to discuss the impact of such a leave on the student's status in the United States and any additional requirements. AP.6.5 Previously Earned Graduate Credit Previously earned graduate-level credit may be applied toward a George Mason graduate degree or certificate. Such credit may originate from external institutions, external examinations, or coursework completed at George Mason University prior to admission to the current program. AP.6.5.1 Graduate Transfer Credit Earned at an External Institution Relevant graduate course credits earned at an institution accredited by a George Mason-recognized U.S. institutional accrediting agency, international equivalent, or at another institution and recommended for graduate credit by the American Council on Education may be transferred and applied towards George Mason graduate degree or certificate programs. This may include credits used for a previously conferred graduate degree or certificate. More than half of the required minimum credits applied to the George Mason degree must be earned at George Mason. Graduate credits earned at an external institution count towards credit hours only and are not included in the calculation of the George Mason grade point average (GPA). Student must supply official transcripts and other information as requested, including an official transcript evaluation and translation for transcripts from outside the United States if not supplied during the admission process. The student's program is responsible for reviewing transcripts or other requested information to determine, in compliance with academic policies, whether credits are applicable to current graduate program requirements and eligible for transfer. Appeals of adverse decisions are not reviewed beyond the college or school's leadership unit and their published criteria. Provisionally admitted students must fulfill the conditions of their admission and have the provisional qualifier removed from their records before graduate credit earned at an external institution will be processed. The applicability of previously earned credit depends on factors including, but not limited to, source, age, grade, academic level, and alignment with program requirements. All students applying previously earned graduate credit must enroll in at least one credit after admission to the degree or certificate program. Students must meet institutional and any applicable unique credit requirements for their graduate program. Individual programs may have more restrictive policies and requirements. This policy does not supersede the requirements under University Policy 3007 Dual Degree Program Arrangements . See also AP.6.9.5 Embedded Master's Degree . Requests to apply previously earned graduate credit to a degree or certificate program must be submitted within the following timeframes and must be approved and recorded prior to the student applying for graduation from the graduate degree or certificate program: 1 semester after admission to a certificate program; 1 year after admission to a master's degree program; or 2 years after admission to a doctoral program. All previously earned credit requests must be: listed as a graduate-level course on the student's official transcript; earned as an admitted degree or non-degree status student; graded a minimum of B- or higher; and earned within 10 years of admission to the George Mason degree or certificate program unless an exception is approved by the student's school or college. Courses graded "pass/fail/ or "satisfactory/no credit" are acceptable if the grade is pass or satisfactory. Courses that follow another non-standard grading format will be evaluated by the student's program on a case-by-case basis. Extension and in-service courses not applied to a graduate degree or certificate program are not eligible. | 2026-2027 | catalog.gmu.edu |
| AP.6.5.4 Permission to Study Elsewhere | transfer_credit | Upon completion of the course, students must arrange for an official transcript to be submitted to George Mason so that the credits may be transferred into their George Mason degree program. These credits are subject to all the other conditions given above for transfer credit, including limits on numbers of credits that can be taken elsewhere. Credits earned through the consortium are considered resident, not transfer, credits, and are therefore not subject to transfer of credit conditions or limitations. | 2026-2027 | catalog.gmu.edu |
| AP.6.7.2 Coursework Requirements | transfer_credit | After acceptance and successful completion of 75 undergraduate credits, accelerated master's students shall complete a minimum of 3 to a maximum of 12 credits of approved advanced standing graduate courses in their field of study. Approved advanced standing credits apply to both the undergraduate and graduate degrees. Advanced standing credits apply to the undergraduate degree as graded credits and count towards the undergraduate cumulative GPA. Advanced standing credits apply to the master's degree as credit hours only and are not included in the graduate GPA. All required graduate course prerequisites must be completed prior to enrollment in the advanced standing course. Students must earn a minimum grade of B- in each approved graduate course, although programs and/or colleges or schools may require a higher minimum to proceed in the accelerated degree pathway. Any grade that does not meet the minimum grade in an approved advanced standing or reserve graduate course will not apply towards the intended graduate degree. Accelerated master's pathway students who do not successfully transfer into the master's program may file a new admissions application to a master’s program and, after admission and enrollment, eligible credits for any graduate coursework previously taken as an undergraduate student may be applied towards the new master's program with permission of the program and in alignment with applicable policies and procedures. | 2026-2027 | catalog.gmu.edu |
