Resources and Graduate Student Life
Graduate Affairs
Grad Affairs administers all graduate programs across SDSU. They evaluate and make final decisions about:
- Student standing in the program
- Eligibility for registration or employment
- Programs of study
- Petitions for exceptions
- Leaves of absence
- Eligibility for advancement to candidacy
- Appointment of thesis committees
- Eligibility for graduation
Please refer to the Graduate Handbook, which lays out all rules and guidelines about the above issues, as well as offering other key resources and links.
