The Graduate Program Coordinator will initiate the feedback process at the beginning of the fall semester. The committee will be asked to complete the following form via DocuSign, which will automatically route to the advisor and the graduate coordinator. I'm showing the form here only for your information.
The committee will submit feedback to the student’s advisor, based on the materials contained in the Executive Summary and the Annual Review Form. The committee is asked to rank the student’s progress as “excellent,” “satisfactory,” or “needs improvement.” It is expected that most students’ progress will be ranked as “satisfactory.” If, however, a student is ranked as “needs improvement,” the committee members should offer feedback on how a student can improve.
