Successful Student Progression
Forms and Milestones
Engagement Opportunities
Mid-career master’s students are defined as those who have completed between one-third of the coursework required for the degree up to approximately 75% of their required course credits. For doctoral students, mid-career is the phase between having completed about one-third of their required course credits up until they successfully advance to doctoral candidacy.

Mid-career students should maintain continuous enrollment and successfully complete required courses. The majority of student forms should be submitted during the mid-career phase. See the Student Forms section for information on which forms are required, form locations, routing, approval processes, etc.
