School of Education Graduate Studies

Students who do not officially drop a class within the initial 14 day add/drop period and are administratively dropped from a class will be assessed a fee of $150 per class. For students officially dropping a class, either before the class starts or before the drop date for the class, there will be no charge. It is not the instructor’s responsibility to drop you from a class or to deliver your drop/add slip to the Graduate Education Office.

• Additional activities beyond class meeting times will be required for all courses.
• Nine graduate credits are considered full time. Permission is required for more than twelve credits per semester.
• Parking permits are required and available at no charge at Campus Safety (616) 632-2462.
• Please notify the Graduate Education Office if you have an address or telephone number change. We attempt to contact students if a class is cancelled; keeping us updated could save you a trip to campus later.
• All coursework for the M.Ed. or MAT degree must be completed within five years of the time enrolled in the first Master's course.

Many M.Ed. courses require a field component during daytime hours.  You are encouraged to contact your education advisor or the instructor prior to registration for specific field component information.

Payment is due in full by the first day of each semester unless you have applied and paid for our Multiple Payment or Employer Reimbursement plans.  Unpaid accounts will receive AR HOLDS barring further registration until charges are paid in full, and will result in the application of interest charges of 1% per month.  Please call Student Accounts for payment plan forms and further information (616) 632-2864.

A student photo ID is necessary to use the services of the Grace Hauenstein Library and the computer labs. You may have the ID prepared at Campus Safety.
