The average of grades for all courses taken
in fulfillment of degree requirements at Medaille must be at
least a B (3.0). It is the student's responsibility to monitor
his or her cumulative quality point average, insuring that any
grades falling below B are offset by corresponding grades above
B. A student whose grade point average falls below a 3.0 is automatically
placed on academic probation.
The M.S. in Ed. Program can be completed
in two semesters (12 hours of course work per semester), and
one summer session (6 hours of course work) provided that the
research project is also completed and approved.
