For PhD’s: If the MS is in Physics, the first-year courses plus special problem hours count toward the MS. The degree can be collected at the end of the first summer, so long as the Graduate Level Change form was submitted before Phase I registration of the first Spring and the Online Application for Graduation was filled out before the first summer. 

Students with a MS degree are ineligible to apply for a NSF GRFP.

If the MS is not in Physics, the MS courses can be used toward the minor requirement. Only one course outside of the School of Physics can be taken per semester (without express permission).
