104 I GRADUATE STUDIES
7. The final thesis (an original plus three photocopies) signed by the thesis committee and
ready for binding, together with the school or departmental clearance and a receipt for
the binding fee (payable in the Fresno State College Association office) must be
submitted to the Office of the School of Graduate Studies, no later than one week before
the last day of scheduled final examinations. A student who wishes to retain more than
one bound copy may arrange for the extra binding by paying an additional fee.
8. A student may arrange to have his thesis published in microfilm form, with an abstract
of the thesis published in the quarterly periodical, Masters Abstracts. This form of
publication is encouraged by the university. Further details of the microfilming and
copyright procedure may be obtained from the Office of the School of Graduate Studies.
REQUEST THAT MASTER'S DEGREE BE GRANTED
A request that the master's degree be granted (which includes the graduation fee payable
in the Business Office) must be filed in the first two weeks of a semester or first week of a
summer session in which the work is to be completed. (See Academic Calendar, Schedule
of Courses, and Fees and Expenses.) Application forms are available in the Student Records
and Graduate Studies Offices. Diplomas for those completing degree requirements during
summer sessions and at midyear will be awarded approximately two months after the end
of the term.
Failure to complete requirements for the degree during the semester of the application
necessitates the filing of a new application for the semester of actual completion. Such
reapplication is subject to the same time schedule as is the original application.
FOREIGN LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT
The University does not have a general foreign language requirement for the master's
degree. Some master's degree majors do, however, require competence in an appropriate
foreign language as a consideration for advancement to candidacy. (See departmental
Fereign Language Requirement and department requirements.) Students who contemplate
study beyond the master's degree are urged also to investigate foreign language
requirements in the institutions in which they anticipate advanced graduate study.
MAXIMUM STUDY LOAD
Graduate courses require substantially more concentrated study than do undergraduate
courses. A normal load is from 9 to 12 units and the maximum allowable load is 16 units for
full-time master's degree students when one or more courses in the 200 series are included.
Students employed full time may take a maximum of 6 units. For maximum units for summer
session see the Summer Session Bulletin.
GRADE REQUIREMENTS
All graduate students will be held to the scholarship standards listed under General
Information. The following provisions also apply to master's degree programs.
A student admitted to a master's degree program in conditional classified or classified
standing is required to maintain a B average on all work taken subsequent to admission to
the program.
No course with a grade below C may apply on a master's degree approved program.
To be eligible for advancement to candidacy, a student must have earned a B average
(both overall and at CSU, Fresno) on all upper division and graduate course work completed
after the date of embarking on the first course to be included in the master's degree program.
To be eligible for enrollment in the thesis or project or in an alternative to the thesis, a
student must have been advanced to candidacy and must have maintained a B average on
his approved program.
To be eligible for the granting of the degree, a student must have maintained a B average
on his complete approved program. Any grade earned in a course on the approved·program
continues to figure in the grade-point average, even if that course is for any reason later
dropped from the program.
To be eligible to receive the master's degree with distinction a student must be nominated
by his department and must have earned at least a 3.9 grade-point average on the master's
degree program and on all courses taken after and including the first semester's work on the
program.
