Frequently Asked Questions for Current Students
Academic / Student Records
The instructor of the course is required to complete a Comment Card on your academic performance after you have completed the course. This takes place when the grades are submitted to the Registrar's Office at the end of the semester. You may view the comments online at UT Link by logging into Student.Net, select a term and do a course search. Comments are only viewable for one semester. If you need comments from a previous semester, please contact the Office of Student Affairs at 713.500.9032 or visit us at RAS E-201.
All students are required to meet with their commitee during the evaluation week at the end of the semester, unless they are graduating or the meeting has been cancelled by the academic advisor. Students will be notified on the intranet of their scheduled meeting time. If the scheduled time can not be met, it's the student's responsibility to reschedule a meeting. Any student who does not come to a scheduled meeting will have a HOLD placed on their next semester registration.
Download the evaluation form. We recommend that students keep a copy on file in their computer. That way you can update the form each semester prior to your evaluation meeting.
To obtain a leave of absence, please refer to the leave of absence policy.

Can I have an outside member on my committee and how do I do that?
Yes, but only as an optional committee member and the student must provide a CV of the individual. MPH students must process an Optional Committee Member Form. M.S. and Doctoral students should include the optional member on their committee form. The form and the CV must be submitted to the Office of Student Affairs for approval.

Registration
It means that you must contact the Office of Student Affairs.

After your record is verified, we will direct you on the appropriate procedure. This is an overnight process.
How do I resolve the holds on my record?
