APPENDIX

Forms

On the following pages are samples of two forms that need to be filled out to document the completion of one of the required tasks for the Ph.D. degree. Please note that these forms are used within the clinical area. Other forms generated by the university are used to document completion of work that leads to degree conferral. University forms and requirements are constantly changing. The Director of Graduate Studies or the Secretary to the Chair can help you with university forms and requirements.

Informal Course Descriptions

When you file for a degree (either Masters or Ph.D.), you must be able to document the nature of courses that are not described in the University Catalog. These include courses such as Graduate Work (600), Applied Skills Supervision (799), and Thesis Guidance (799). Also included are most practica courses and seminars. The course description must include what the purpose of the course was, what you did, and a list of readings. It is to your advantage to systematically maintain a record of these items as you are going through the program. This will greatly simplify your task of applying for a degree and eventually applying for a license in a state other than New York.
