Petition for exceptions to graduate policy

According to the UTA Catalog, a graduate student may ask for exceptions to a published graduate policy by submitting a petition. The Graduate Advisor and the departmental Committee on Graduate Studies Chair will evaluate the petition and send it to the Dean for final decision. Limited exceptions to some rules may be approved if the facts presented by the petitioner are fully justified in the views of the Graduate Advisor, Committee on Graduate Studies Chair, and Dean.

Please complete the form found at the link below in consultation with your Graduate Advisor and have them begin the petition process:
