What is the point of the review

The purpose of the review is to give both the faculty and the student a formal time to consider what the student has achieved to this point, what their goals are, and what they need to do in the next two years to strengthen their skills and work towards their goals.

The review also gives the faculty a chance to review the work and the level of achievement within the department and to assess the quality of the program.

The student will receive a written statement of the review along with comments from the panel of faculty.

The students will also receive a numerical rating of Above Average, Average or Below Average. Students with below average ratings will be asked to reconsider their major.
