If they wish to transfer to thePh,D. program, they must apply to the Admissions Committee.which will make its decision based on thestudent's performance in the M.S. programand on the recommendations of the faculty.<H2>Full Graduate Status</H2><P>A student is admitted to a degree program with full status if he or she hasminimally earned a bachelor's degree, hasmaintained a grade point average of at least B, and has completedthe following courses <em>or their equivalents</em>.A student is admitted to a degree program with full graduate status if he/she has earned at least a B.S. degree, maintained a grade point average of at least B, and completed minimally a selection of courses in the following topical areas (the corresponding Pitt coursenumbers are indicated):<OL><LI> in Computer Science, one course in each of:<BR><BR> <UL> <LI> Discrete Structures (CS 0441) <LI> Information/Data Structures (CS 0445) <LI> Computer Organization/Assembly Language (CS 0447) <LI> Theory (CS 1510 or 1511) <LI> Languages (CS 1520 or 1621) <LI> Systems (CS 1550 or 1651 </UL><BR><LI> in Mathematics, the following:<BR><BR> <UL> <LI> the three-course calculus sequence (Math 0220, 0230, 0240) <LI> a course in linear algebra (Math 1180 or 0280) <LI> a course in probability & statistics, requiring calculus as prerequisite (Stat 1151, 1152) </UL></OL><H2>Provisional Graduate Status</H2><P>A student may be admitted to the M.S. degree program with provisional status if his or her qualifications are minimally deficient.Such students will be advanced to full graduate status afterremoval of the identified deficiences.Students are expected to gain full graduate status by the time theycomplete 18 credits or, equivalently, one academic year of full-time graduate studies. Students with provisional status are not allowed tohold a teaching assistantship.<H2>Temporary Graduate Status</H2><P>This status allows a student to take graduate level courses for oneterm without enrolling in a graduate program.Temporary status is appropriate for a student who<UL><LI> wants to take one or more specific courses for whichhe/she has the necessary qualifications,<LI> has deficiencies (in background or low grades), or<LI> fails to meet the deadline for filing an officialapplication for admission but has met all of the requirements foradmission into a degree program with full graduate status.</UL><P>A student interested in applying for such special (temporary) statusmust first obtain written permission from the faculty member teaching thecourse of interest and then follow all of the procedures foradmission to a graduate degree program.<H1>Application Materials</H1><P>All application materials should be sent by the specified deadlines,to the Graduate Admissions Committee, at the address given below.<BR><BR><strong>Graduate Admissions Committee<BR>Department of Computer Science<BR>University of Pittsburgh<BR>Pittsburgh, PA 15260<BR>U.S.A.<BR></strong><P>The materials should all be in hard-copy form.
