Academic Policies

First Class Meeting

If unable to attend the first class meeting, the student should contact the instructor or the department administrative assistant to secure a place in the class.

Dropping and Adding Courses

A change of registration becomes effective only when a Drop/Add form is signed by the major advisor and filed with the Registrar’s Office. Changes made after the start of classes also require the instructor’s signature. A student may not drop a course simply by discontinuing attendance. Undergraduate students who do not follow the required drop procedure will receive a final grade of F; graduate students will receive an AF.

Note: Instructors reserve the right to refuse late adds at any time after the start of classes.
