Readings Courses

Graduate Readings and Doctoral Readings courses serve several purposes: they enable students to maintain full-time status when they near the end of their studies, defer loans, maintain use of the library, and, above all, enable the student to be recognized as a student when it is time to graduate. Students who are not enrolled in regular courses are required to be enrolled at least in Graduate or Doctoral Readings (if not in Thesis or Dissertation Research courses). Readings courses indicate to the Braniff Graduate School that the student still intends to graduate. When students have completed course work, they are required to enroll in Graduate or Doctoral Readings when not enrolled in Thesis or Dissertation courses during at least two semesters of each academic year.  When students discontinue enrolling in Readings courses and seek to restart their studies, they will be required to re-apply with a special fee.

Reading Knowledge Courses

Unless otherwise specified by the program, or due to an exception made at the Graduate or IPS Director's discretion, 5000-level “Reading Knowledge” courses offered through the Modern Languages department are solely for the purpose of satisfying language requirements and do not count for graduate credit.
