| Written Candidacy Exams - Basic Requirement |
| Written candidacy exams, or the basic requirement, must be attempted by the end of the first year, meaning the summer exam session. The October exam session is for retakes. To postpone exams from summer to fall, you must meet with Frank Porter and have a really good excuse. First year students may elect to take either CP or QM written exams during the October exam session or during the summer session prior to matriculation, if they wish. Written exams must be successfuly completed by the end of the second year of graduate study. |
