If the progress is not satisfactory the supervisor is required to submit a report comparing the progress to that expected according to the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) or Annual Supplement (AS). The report is used by the Faculty Board to determine if the student can be permitted to continue (coded CONT: Academically eligible to continue)
