The State 's interest in not funding the pursuit of devotional degrees is substantial and the exclusion of such funding places a relatively minor burden on Promise Scholars . Accelerated sequential degrees are excluded from this designation . The need for increased numbers of graduates with doctoral degrees is a priority of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association .

Details about the requirements for advanced degrees are published annually in the Graduate Prospectus .
