Student Responsibility

While Alabama State University endeavors to provide timely, helpful and accurate advisement, it is ultimately the responsibility of the student to know and satisfy all degree and certification requirements. At the same time, it is incumbent upon all graduate students to be knowledgeable of all University and The Murphy Graduate School policies and procedures. By enrolling at Alabama State University, students indicate their willingness to subscribe to and be governed by established rules and regulations. They also acknowledge the right of the University to take such disciplinary action, including suspension and/or expulsion, as may be deemed appropriate for failure (1) to meet all obligations (both academic and financial), (2) to abide by current rules and regulations, or (3) to engage in conduct adjudged unsatisfactory or detrimental to the university.

In addition to the Graduate Bulletin, all graduate students should read the official Student Handbook, The Pilot, which contains current university policies and regulations. Any student who needs a copy of the student handbook should contact the Office of Student Affairs, C1-18 in the Hardy Center. Copies of the Graduate Bulletin are available upon request in The Murphy Graduate School.
