Midpoint Review

The Midpoint Review is a formal presentation before a review committee where the graduate school evaluates each student's eligibility for Master's candidacy based on the following:

  • Challenge and quality of proposed Final Thesis Project
  • Level of critical thinking and problem solving evident
  • Development of a body of work

Each graduate student is required to present at Midpoint Review once they have completed the majority of their studio coursework. Midpoint Reviews are conducted each semester. Once the graduate student's work and Final Thesis Project proposal is approved at Midpoint Review, the student is eligible for Master's candidacy and may commence Directed Study.
