  1. GS-700 Enrollment Approval Form

 

GS 700 is used by students who need additional time to complete their thesis (CE 698), independent study (CE 697), or comprehensive exams. In general, GS 700 will not be approved for more than two semesters. Although it is a zero-unit course, the fee is based on one unit of credit for payment purposes; no unit credit is added to the student’s program or transcript. 

For Winter and Summer sessions, enrollment in GS 700 is required only if the student plans to graduate during that particular term. If a student wishes to take the Fall or Spring semester off before resuming coursework, she or he must request a Planned Educational Leave, not GS 700. The purpose of this restriction is to keep students on track to completion within the required seven-year period. 

Students who need to enroll in GS 700 must maintain good standing in their graduate program by demonstrating satisfactory progress towards the completion of a thesis, independent project, or comprehensive exams. Students must have advanced to candidacy before requesting to enroll in GS 700. 

If you need to enroll in GS 700, please contact your graduate advisor in person or via email to discuss why you are requesting to enroll in the class and for the GS 700 Enrollment Approval form. Students should carefully follow the instructions on the GS-700 Enrollment Approval Forms, such as attaching a work plan or timeline, before requesting approval signatures. Once approval signatures are obtained from the thesis advisor (if on thesis track), graduate advisor, and the department chair, the student will need to submit the form to the Assistant to the Dean (ECS-616) for approval from the HFCOE Coordinator of Graduate Programs. 

The department will notify the student via email if the GS 700 Enrollment Approval request is approved by the HFCOE Coordinator of Graduate Programs. If the request is approved before the Self-Service Registration deadline, the student may enroll into the class online via MyCSULB by searching "Graduate Studies 700." If the request is approved after the deadline, the student will need register in person by filling out the GS 700 Permission Slip and submitting it to the CCPE Student Services Center, located on the first floor at the west end of the Foundation Building. The deadline for graduate students to register for GS 700 is at the end of the add/drop period of the semester.
