- To remain in good academic standing, students are required to meet with their Advisory Committee soon after it is approved (within 3-4 months) and at least once every six months after that
- The candidacy exam does not count as having a committee meeting. Students are required to meet with their Advisory Committee within six months of their previous advisory meeting (as usual) OR three months after their original candidacy exam date(whichever is later).
- At least four committee members must be present at the meeting or attend by video/call-in
- Students are expected to provide their committee with a pre-meeting progress update at least 5 days before their meeting
- During the meeting, the committee completes part of the committee meeting report and each member should sign the report form whether present or not for the meeting.
- The committee meeting report, which includes the student's progress update and the student's response to the committee's recommendations, should be submitted to the student, all members of the Advisory Committee and to gsbs.reports@uth.tmc.edu within 10 business days from the date of the meeting. The meeting will be recorded only if a report is received.
