During the first semester of the M.T.S. degree program, you must submit an Entrance Report form detailing and clarifying your learning goals for the program and self-assessment in relevant competency areas at the beginning of your program.

The report is reviewed by your advisor, who may indicate necessary revisions, and who may request a meeting with you after receiving it, or with whom you may want to consult in writing the report. The entrance report is submitted to your advisor and the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs no later than end of October (for Summer and Fall starters) or end of March (for Intersession and Spring starters). A copy of your Entrance Report will be received by the Assistant Dean for Academic Affairs and archived in the Office of Academic Affairs for a limited number of years separately from your official student file. Please ensure you use the official school email addresses for both yourself and your advisor.

Responses from all students in aggregate form may be shared with faculty for the purposes of student advisement. If data is presented in aggregate form to other non-PSR third parties such as accreditors, all personal identifiers (such as your name and email) will be removed.

This milestone is due the end of October for Summer/Fall admits, end of March for Intersession/Spring admits. Please submit any further questions about this milestone to the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs at registrar@psr.edu.
