Advancement to Candidacy Interview

Students pursuing the Spanish M.A. should, before completing 20 quarter units toward the degree, prepare and file a document called  “An Approved Graduate Program” with the Coordinator, Spanish Masters Program.  It is recommended that you make an appointment with the coordinator before the end of the winter quarter to complete this document.  This process, referred to as the Advancement to Candidacy, is required before a Graduation Check is submitted.

Additional Information for Continuing Students

1. Masters candidates must be continuously registered. If a student plans to be absent for a quarter, a leave of absence application must be filled out (available in Graduate Studies, AD 127).

2. Students who have completed all coursework in the Spanish Masters Program must maintain continuous registration prior to passing the Spanish Masters Exam, by enrolling in Spanish 698. Failure to enroll in Span 698 will be dismismal from the program. This is a university requirement.

3. Students may participate in the University commencement ceremony only after passing the Spanish Masters Exam.
