Undergraduate Advising: Benchmarks

The Clark School of Engineering has expectations and enforces policies that are designed to promote the success of its students and to ensure timely progress towards graduation. Students are required to complete a specific number of courses each academic year as defined in the benchmarks below.  Any student who re-enrolls, reinstates or changes their major within or into the Clark School will be adjusted to the new benchmark requirements as of Fall 2009.

A student who does not meet a benchmark and is not making timely progress towards his/her degree will be required to meet with his/her departmental advisor before the start of the next semester. Failure to do so may result in the cancellation of his/her pre-registration for the subsequent semester.
