During your second semester, you will have the opportunity to petition for a third semester to fulfill any missing course requirements. You’ll need to show that you tried to complete the program in 2 semesters by enrolling in about 15 MPS credits each semester.
To petition for a third semester, fill out this petition form and have a conversation with Gilly Leshed, director of the MPS Program, during her office hours. After Gilly has given her approval, please submit the form electronically to Information Science Graduate Program Coordinator Barbara Woske at bae2@cornell.edu. Please be aware there is no reduced tuition for the third semester. You will be charged the full tuition amount of one semester, no matter how many classes you enroll in. Students must enroll in at least 12 credits with a minimum of 6 credits being MPS-related courses at a 4000-level or higher. Students must be enrolled in a minimum of 12 credits taken as either a letter grade or S/U. Classes that are taken as audit do not count as full time student status.
