|*Students taking Program-Specific Qualifying Examinations, which are typically in the form of paper(s), should consult with their departments for relevant dates. |
Upon receiving the completed application, the College of Education’s Graduate Support Office (GSO) will review the student’s records to determine readiness for taking the qualifying examination. In order to be cleared, students must have completed all required coursework by the end of the semester in which the qualifying examination will be taken OR be registered for a minimum of two (2) graduate-level credit hours for the semester in which the qualifying examination will be taken. In addition, students should have an approved planned program of study and doctoral committee form on file in their departments and with the College of Education’s Graduate Support Office. All incomplete ("I") grades and missing (“M”) grades for courses on the student’s program of study must be removed from his/her record. Any issues that will prevent clearance for taking the qualifying examination will be reported to the student’s major professor for resolution.
Once the Application for Doctoral Qualifying Examination has been approved, you will receive an email from GSO with instructions specific to the type of qualifying examination you are taking: for College Wide, your email will list the dates, time, and location of the College Wide exam as well as direction on materials you may or may not bring with you to the examination. For Program-Specific: you’ll receive directions to check with your academic department regarding assessment guidelines
Once the student has completed the Doctoral Qualifying Examination, the student’s major professor will alert the student of the examination results approximately 3-6 weeks after the College-Wide examination date for the semester. (This time-frame applies to all students, regardless of the type of Doctoral Qualifying Examination completed.)
Passing the Doctoral Qualifying Examination results in a student’s eligibility to enter doctoral candidacy. The Application for Doctoral Candidacy can be found at
Information about doctoral candidacy will be forwarded to you from both the College of Education and the USF Office of Graduate Studies. Please read these materials carefully as they contain information regarding the procedures and deadlines you need to observe as you complete your dissertation project.
