The purpose of this catalog is to present detailed information regarding Winthrop University's graduate curricula and to provide a general description of its various academic units.  The information and educational requirements represent a flexible program that may be altered where such alterations are thought to be in the mutual interest of the University and its students.

   The provisions of the catalog do not constitute any offer of a contract which may be accepted by students through registration and enrollment in the university.  The university reserves the right to change without notice any fee, provision, offering or requirement in this catalog and to determine whether a student has satisfactorily met requirements for admission or graduation.

Student Responsibility

    Each academic unit establishes requirements that must be met prior to a degree being granted.  It is important that the student become familiar with these requirements and complete them within the prescribed deadlines. Advisors, department heads and deans are available to offer assistance, but the ultimate responsibility rests with the student.
