Candidates for the sixth-year certificate must complete a minimum of 30 credits in addition to a Master's degree and maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.00 (B) on the graduate record at Central Connecticut State University. In addition to grade-point requirements for good academic standing, students should note that no more than two grades of C+ or C (i.e. two C’s, or two C+’s , or one C and one C+) are permitted for courses included on the planned program of graduate study. All course work and any related requirements for the sixth-year certificate must be completed as specified within the "Six-Year Time Limit" section.
