FACULTY AND STAFF

PURPOSE AND ORGANIZATION

LSUS offers programs of graduate study to the student who holds a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university. The student may pursue the following degrees at LSUS:

• Master of Arts in Liberal Arts (MLA)
• Master of Business Administration (MBA)
• Master of Education (MED)
• Master of Science in Counseling Psychology
• Master of Science in Health Care Administration
• Master of Science in Human Services Administration (MSHSA)
• Master of Science in Systems Technology (MSST)
• Specialist in School Psychology (SSP)

Other graduate degrees may be pursued at LSUS in cooperation with another Louisiana university. For these programs, the cooperating university awards the degree. The following are cooperative programs offered on this campus:

• Master of Arts in English (cooperative with Louisiana Tech or with LSU Baton Rouge)
• Master of Science in Environmental Science (cooperative with LSU Baton Rouge)
• Master of Arts in History (cooperative with Louisiana Tech)
• Master of Science in:
  • Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
  • Cellular Biology and Anatomy
  • Microbiology and Immunology
  • Pharmacology and Therapeutics
  • Physiology and Biophysics
    (cooperatives with LSU Health Sciences Center-Shreveport)

A student not interested in pursuing a graduate degree may enroll in graduate courses as a non-degree student. Members of the Graduate Faculty teach all courses offered for graduate credit.

LSUS does not offer any graduate courses by correspondence or award graduate credit by examination.

The aim of graduate programs at LSUS is the promotion of scholarship that is thorough, creative, and independent in character.

Graduate study is much more than a continuation of undergraduate work. It provides students the opportunity to become investigators in special fields of learning, to broaden their professional and cultural background, and to improve their professional skills and competence. The true spirit of graduate study is one of inquiry and the desire to add to one's knowledge. Graduate study is, therefore, open only to students whose academic records indicate the ability to perform at a high level of professional practice or to accomplish academic work that can be judged as outstanding in quality.

All graduate programs are administered by the Dean of Graduate Studies, who is advised by a Graduate Council composed of ten members elected from the Graduate Faculty of the University. Under general policies established by the University, the Graduate Council provides for, regulates, and authorizes graduate credit for existing courses, approves new courses, rules on questions of admissions and standards, and makes recommendations on other matters relating to the administration of all graduate programs.

ADMISSIONS TO GRADUATE STUDY

Graduates of colleges or universities accredited by the proper regional accrediting association may apply for admission to graduate study at LSUS. Admission is restricted to include only those students whose academic records indicate they can successfully undertake graduate work in the proposed area.

• Unconditional Admission: Graduate students must have a minimum 2.5 grade point average on the undergraduate degree (on a 4.0 scale) or a 2.75 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) in the last 60 hours attempted in the degree program. In addition, a 3.0 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) is required on any graduate work attempted. Students meeting these criteria will be unconditionally admitted to graduate study.
• Conditional Admission: Students may be admitted with a conditional status if they have a 2.25 undergraduate grade point average (on a 4.0) scale and have submitted a satisfactory GMAT** or GRE** score.
• Appeal: Any student not meeting these criteria may appeal through the appropriate graduate program coordinator and dean for admission. Recommendations will be submitted to the Graduate Dean for final approval.

In general only students formally admitted to graduate study are eligible to enroll in graduate courses. (See “Graduate Credit” under “GENERAL REGULATIONS.”) All applications and inquiries should be addressed to: Office of Admissions and Records, LSUS, One University Place, Shreveport, Louisiana 71115.

Admission Procedure: The student seeking to pursue graduate studies at LSUS should obtain appropriate graduate studies application forms from the Office of Admissions and Records and follow the applicable procedures listed below

1. ALL GRADUATE APPLICANTS
   
   
   1. A complete application form, and all supporting credentials must be sent to the Office of Admissions and Records. This must be done at least 30 days prior to the anticipated registration date in order to avoid late charges. Final admission decisions are made only after receipt of all credentials.
   2. An official transcript must be sent directly to the Office of Admissions and Records by the registrar of each college and university attended, including both graduate and undergraduate work and showing all degrees previously awarded. The student who has attended institutions outside the United States should submit complete academic records translated into English and certified as true and correct.
   3. For students born after 1956, proof of immunization or immunity to measles, mumps and rubella must be provided to the Office of Admissions and Records prior to registration. This policy applies to all students entering LSUS for the first time and all students returning after an absence of one term or more. Proof of tetanus/diphtheria immunization is also required. A copy of the Immunization Policy is provided with the admissions materials.
   4. Admission to Graduate Studies does not automatically admit an applicant to a degree program. Admission requirements to specific degree programs vary. (See “C. Individual program applicants.”)
      
      
   A student may claim exemption from the immunization requirement for medical or personal reasons; however, the University will require the student to leave the campus and be excluded from class in the event of an outbreak of measles, mumps or rubella. Students claiming exemption will not be permitted back on campus or in class until the outbreak is over or until proof of adequate immunization has been submitted to the Office of Admissions and Records.

ADMISSION CLASSIFICATION FOR GRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS

A prospective student who has earned a baccalaureate degree and plans to take additional work beyond the baccalaureate degree must apply for admission to graduate study and be admitted under one of the following classifications:

Regular
A prospective candidate for a degree who meets all requirements for unconditional admission to a graduate program and has been recommended by the department and college in which he/she proposes to study and whose admission has been approved by the Dean of Graduate Studies is classified as a regular degree student.

Conditional
A prospective candidate for a degree who does not satisfy unconditional admission requirements will be classified as conditional. The conditional status in Graduate Study will be removed when the student earns a minimum of 12 term hours of graduate credit at LSUS with a 3.0 average and no grade lower than “C” and not more than one course with a grade of “C.” When a student completes 12 term hours of graduate credit and is not eligible for unconditional admission to graduate study, the student will be dropped from graduate status. A student initiating graduate work under this classification may or may not enroll in graduate courses leading to a degree (see provisions of the individual programs), and such courses (if allowed) may be counted in a degree program when the student has met the condition(s) specified at the time of admission and has been reclassified.

Provisional
A prospective candidate for a degree who does not satisfy the full admission requirements into a graduate program will be classified as provisional under the conditions specified at the time of admission by the Dean of Graduate Studies upon the recommendation of the Graduate Faculty of the department in the college in which the student proposes to study. A student initiating graduate work under this classification may or may not enroll in graduate courses leading to a degree (see provisions of the individual programs), and such courses (if allowed) may be counted in a degree program when the student has met the condition(s) specified at the time of admission and has been reclassified.

Failure to satisfy the conditions in the specified time limit will result in the student’s ineligibility to continue work toward the degree.

Classifications for Non-Degree Graduate Programs:
Non-degree
Admission in the non-degree category is restricted primarily to those persons who may benefit professionally from additional study at the graduate level. In general the only supportive material required for such admission is a valid transcript showing an appropriate background and confirming the awarding of at least a bachelor’s degree. A non-degree student is ineligible to become a candidate for an advanced degree or to receive a graduate appointment for financial assistance. Should the student subsequently wish to be admitted to a degree program, a formal application must be made and either conditional or unconditional admission requirements must be met. A maximum of 9 term hours of graduate credit earned while classified as non-degree may be applied toward the degree, except that students in the Master of Business Administration program may not apply any credit earned while classified as non-degree.

Transient
A student in good standing at another recognized graduate school who wishes to take work at LSUS may enroll as a transient student. In lieu of the usual transcripts and test scores, this student must submit a completed graduate application and certification of good standing in a recognized graduate school at another institution and state that he or she wishes to enroll at LSUS for a specified term. A student is admitted under this classification for one term only. The student must be readmitted under this classification each term to be eligible for graduate courses.

GENERAL REGULATIONS

Course Loads
The following sections define maximum load requirements for graduate students.

Maximum Graduate Credits Per Term
The maximum number of graduate credits in which a graduate student may enroll is 15 in a regular term and 9 in a summer term. The total number of graduate and undergraduate credits in which a graduate student may be enrolled at LSUS concurrently is 19 during a regular term and 10 in a summer term.

Credits Per Term for Full-time and Part-time Graduate Students
A full-time graduate student is one who is enrolled for 9 or more credits in a regular term or 6 or more in a summer term. A part-time graduate student is one who is enrolled in fewer than 9 credits in a regular term or fewer than 6 credits in a summer term.

For those who seek financial aid, full-time graduate status is defined as 6 or more hours for summer, and 9 or more hours for fall or spring terms; half-time graduate status is 6-8 hours.

Maximum Credits for Working Students
A student in the Master of Education Program who is teaching full-time may not enroll for more than 6 graduate credits without permission of the College of Education Dean.

Transfer Credits
For the master's degree a maximum of 6 term hours of graduate credit with grades of B or higher may be transferred from another regionally accredited institution with the approval of the graduate program Coordinator. The Graduate Council may grant permission to accept a greater number of transfer credits in individual cases. Graduate credits earned by extension from other universities, by examination, or by correspondence are not accepted. (See also “Specialist in School Psychology, Advanced Standing Candidate.”)

Students seeking the Master of Education degree at LSUS may transfer 9 term hours of graduate credit with grades of B or higher from another regionally accredited institution, with the approval of the graduate program coordinator. Transfer hours (up to a maximum of 18) may be considered at the discretion of the program coordinator in consultation with the program committee as well as faculty members who have expertise in the area(s) in which course transfer credit is requested. In all cases, prior approval must be granted before transfer credit is accepted.

Graduate Credit
All courses that may fulfill graduate degree requirements at LSUS are numbered 600 or 700. Courses numbered 700 are open to graduate students only, except as indicated below. The student who has been admitted to the Graduate Program under the classification Regular, Precandidate, Provisional, Non-degree, or Transient may register for graduate courses.

A senior at LSUS who needs fewer than 15 term hours to complete requirements for the bachelor's degree and has maintained a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0 may be permitted to register for graduate credit in courses, provided the student registers for all the remaining courses required for graduation and for no more than 15 term hours total. This privilege applies only during the final term of the student's undergraduate work and is extended only upon recommendation of the dean of the student's college and approval of the Coordinator of the graduate program involved. A student must complete all undergraduate degree credit courses in order to retain the privilege of obtaining graduate credit for the remaining courses.

Superior undergraduate students may register earlier than their final term for graduate-level courses; however, these courses do not count for graduate credit. For undergraduate enrollment by these students in 700-level graduate courses, the student must have earned at least 90 term hours with a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or higher. Approval by the dean of the student's college and the Coordinator of the graduate program involved is required.

Graduate credit courses in the College of Business are available to LSUS business undergraduates who have met all entrance requirements. (See also “MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.”)

GRADE REQUIREMENTS AND SCHOLASTIC REGULATIONS

GRADE REQUIREMENTS
In order to receive a master's or specialist's degree, a student must have at least a 3.0 cumulative grade point average on all graduate work attempted, whether at LSUS or elsewhere.

Those courses in which grades of P, NC, W or I are recorded are not included in determining the grade point average.

SCHOLASTIC REGULATIONS

Grading System

Repeated Courses
A graduate student may repeat any undergraduate or graduate course, with all attempts counting toward the student’s GPA. The delete option is NOT APPLICABLE for ANY graduate course, to ANY graduate student, or to ANY student working towards another baccalaureate degree.

Duplicated Courses (400/600 level)
At the discretion of the program Coordinator, a student may be allowed to take a graduate course that essentially duplicates an undergraduate course but requires more rigorous coursework.

Probation and Ineligibility
A graduate student is expected to maintain a 3.0 grade point average on all graduate work attempted and in any other work attempted. A graduate student who fails to earn a 3.0 average in any term or summer term, or who receives a grade of D in any graduate course will be placed on academic probation.

A graduate student on probation must maintain a term grade point average of 3.0 for each term on probation, with no course grades of C or below. Probationary status is removed when the student raises his or her grade point average to 3.0 or better in all graduate coursework.

A graduate student on academic probation who fails to correct his or her grade point average within two terms of coursework will be dropped from the program.

In addition, any graduate student receiving a grade of F in a graduate course, or having more than three credit hours of graduate work with a grade of D or having more than six credit hours of graduate work with a grade of C or lower will be dropped from the program.

Any graduate student dropped from a program for academic reasons will not be readmitted to graduate study in any program at the university.

Registration for Thesis
A student must register for thesis during each term in which the thesis is under preparation and when college facilities and/or staff time are utilized. The letters IP will be recorded each term for which a graduate student registers and makes satisfactory progress in the thesis course. The Registrar will record on each transcript that thesis credit for a graduate degree is limited to 6 term hours, although the student may need to register for additional hours in order to complete the thesis.

Time Limit for Completing Degrees
All coursework credited toward the degree must have been begun no earlier than eight years prior to the completion of all of the degree requirements.

Extension of time may be granted only on conditions beyond control of the student. A formal request outlining the conditions upon which the extension of time is made should be addressed to the Dean of Graduate Studies. Master of Education Students should also see “Transfer Credit,” Master of Education program.

Graduate Only Coursework
At least 50 percent of the courses applicable toward a degree must be numbered 700 or above.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

The student must meet all the requirements for a graduate degree outlined in one issue of the catalog. Any catalog in force during the student's residence at the University may be elected, provided the residence is continuous. If residence is interrupted for 12 consecutive months, the student may not elect a catalog earlier than the one in force at the time of reentry. No graduate degree, whether honorary or earned, shall be conferred except by vote of the Board of Supervisors upon recommendation of the University and the Graduate Faculty. Procedural requirements which must be completed by the student prior to graduation as follows:

1. During the term immediately prior to the term or term in which the degree is to be awarded, the candidate must ask the dean of the appropriate college to evaluate the candidate's academic record for compliance with degree requirements. The degree check-out form (available in the deans office), signed by the dean and furnished to the candidate must then be presented to the Dean of Graduate Studies for approval. The candidate next must make application for a degree in the Office of Admissions and Records, giving the exact name that is to appear on the diploma.
2. The candidate must pay the diploma fee of $30 at the last registration. A candidate who has previously paid a diploma fee but failed to graduate at the time expected must pay an additional fee of $10.
3. At least three days prior to graduation, the candidate must clear any financial indebtedness to the University.
4. The candidate must participate in commencement ceremonies unless granted permission to receive his or her degree in absentia. The request for such permission, stating the extenuating circumstances, must be made in writing prior to graduation to the dean of the student's college.

Requirements for a Second Master's Degree
Students who wish to obtain a second master’s degree from this University must meet all academic and residence requirements set by the Graduate Program and the department concerned. A maximum of six hours from the first degree may be applied toward the second, provided that at the beginning of the second degree the dean and Coordinator of the second master’s degree approve the credits.
