In all colleges, students who have not satisfied requirements by the end of the specified time may be required to repeat courses and/or meet further requirements. Students for whom more than two years has elapsed since the date of last enrollment may be required to re-apply and/or re-audition for the program, and must meet all requirements in place at the time of their readmission.
For all colleges/schools except the Westminster Choir College and the College of Education and Human Services, students must complete all requirements for the master’s degree within six (6) years of the date of first registration for graduate course work. College of Education and Human Services students must complete all requirements for their program within six years of the enrollment date of the first course (with the exception of the M.A. in Counseling Services program, which is eight years from the date of acceptance into the program; the M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling which is ten years from the date of acceptance into the program; and the Ed.S. in School Psychology, which is ten years from the date of acceptance into the program; and four years after completion of APRN 5007 in the Graduate Nursing Program.)

For Westminster Choir College students, credits earned at another institution or through Westminster Continuing Education outside the seven-year period that commenced with initial enrollment in a degree program must be approved for transfer into that program by the department offering the degree.
