The Graduate School outlines degree requirements based on credit accumulation. Structured this way, the Comparative Literature M.A. consists of 30 credits. While the program can be finished in at least one year, students with graduate assistantships typically require two years - the maximum duration for departmental assistantship funding at the M.A. level. Graduate School policies mandate completing all degree components within eight years, though the department may require students to finish remaining coursework in a more compressed timeframe.
