Petitions

Exceptions to published rules may be requested by proper petition to the Office of Graduate Studies. Each petition will be considered on its own merit by the Dean of Graduate Studies. The signature of the student and the signatures of all members of the graduate student’s advisory committee, if appointed, are required on a petition. Furthermore, the signature of the department head, or his or her designee, (or chair of the intercollegiate faculty, if appropriate) is required on all petitions.

Specific forms for these types of petitions are found on the Office of Graduate Studies website address at ogs.tamu.edu/OGS/currentForms.htm and must be used.
