Degree Completion Plan 

New and continuing students, If you haven’t created a degree completion plan, please stop by MPA Services to get yourself off to a good start by meeting with your academic advisor. Having a degree plan will not only help you to optimize your schedule and stay on track until graduation, but it will also help the MPA academic advisors to serve you more efficiently.

During your meeting with Melissa Joseph or Fatima Pujols, you will be able to identify the required courses for each program, determine which courses you should register for, and assist you in developing an expected graduation date.

The advisors will also be available to answer student questions relating to:

  • Specializations
  • Graduate audits
  • Transfers
  • Substitutions
  • Differential Tuition
  • Process for resolving Incomplete grades
  • Probation process
  • MPAQE questions
