DEGREE/MAJOR
A student may complete the requirements for the initial degree under the provisions
of any valid UofM Catalog provided the effective date of that Catalog is not earlier
than the student’s initial admission to UofM or some other accredited institution
of higher learning. The degree requirements published in the Undergraduate Catalog
of the University of Memphis are valid for seven years from the beginning of the academic
year to which the Catalog applies. For students whose initial enrollment occurs Fall
2013-Summer 2014, this Catalog is valid through Summer 2020.
With the approval of the dean of the college through which the student’s degree is
offered, any student who had completed at least fifteen semester hours of course work
and whose progress was interrupted by a call to active military duty may extend the
validity date for graduation for any Catalog valid at the time of the call to active
duty. Though the student should attempt to complete requirements within the normal
seven-year validity period, the dean may grant an extension commensurate with actual
time served on active military duty and time required for directly related medical
treatment that prevents the student’s re-enrollment. Qualification for this extension
is contingent upon re-enrollment within a period of time deemed reasonable by the
dean. The extension is not allowed for a full military career.
The seven-year Catalog validity period applies only to degree requirements as specified
in Graduation from the University and Colleges, Degree Programs and Courses sections
of the Catalog. It does not apply to regulations in the Academic Regulations section.
Specific regulations apply for the year in which they appear in the Catalog.
MINOR
A student with a declared major may pursue any established minor described in this
or any subsequent Catalog. The selected minor must be different than the declared
major and require approval of the degree granting college under which the student
is graduating. The minimum of 18 credit hours for a minor is required. Some of the
hours in the minor may also be included in the student's general education and degree
requirements. There must be at least 9 hours at the upper division level. The GPA
required for the minor is that of the degree granting college. Students must complete
the coursework for the minor as described in the “College and Degree Programs” section
of the undergraduate Catalog. The minor must be declared no later than graduation
check-out time. All course requirements for the minor must be completed by the time
of graduation.
