Beyond this schedule, it is the responsibility of the student to keep in touch with readers and present them with work-in-progress in a timely fashion. Students are strongly urged to arrange with their thesis advisor a regular schedule of meetings, submission of work-in-progress, and the expected date for the submission of the final draft of the thesis. This helps ensure the continued progress of the research and prevents misunderstandings about the scope and direction of the study. It is recommended that students discuss with all readers the criteria that will be used to evaluate interim work and the completed thesis.
All due dates are subject to change in the event of adjustments to the Tulane academic calendar.
