Y\u00d6K defines thesis progress committee meeting (T\u0130K) periods as two per year: 1 Jan to 30 June and 1 July to 31 December, which do not exactly overlap with semesters. Please keep this in mind when scheduling T\u0130Ks, although ESBE tries to be as helpful as possible in small deviations and handling on-leave periods. Please also note that there should be at least four months between T\u0130Ks.<br \/>\n3. Either a successful T\u0130K (or proposal defense, or thesis defense), or a failed T\u0130K, or on leave should be on GRASS for every student, every period. Failed T\u0130K should distinguish between T\u0130K that took place where the candidate failed and T\u0130K that was skipped.<br \/>\n4. T\u0130K result forms must be accompanied by a note from the advisor explaining what has been accomplished, what remains to be done and estimated time of completion, even if this is a wild guess. Estimated dates should be tighter estimates as the defense dates get closer. Students should also receive a copy of these T\u0130K notes. These should form a paper trail towards a successful and timely defense or make clear that the candidate had received proper feedback in case of an unsuccessful (including extension) defense or termination due to semester limits.<br \/>\n5. T\u0130K outcome forms together with advisors\u2019 notes, including notes stating that the meeting did not take place in that period, should please be sent to ESBE via EBYS within three days of the committee meeting.<br \/>\n6. Graduate students may not withdraw from classes. They take all classes with their advisors\u2019 approval already, please be mindful in approving courses for your advisees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Chairs, DGSs, and Advisors: 1.
