Adding / Dropping Courses

 

Adding Courses

Students may add courses only during the official 鈥淎dd鈥� period. Students may add online once a session has begun using an 鈥渁dd authorization鈥� issued by the instructor. 

 

Students may enroll in more than 18 units per semester or 8 units in summer session after the start of the semester session with an overload petition. Overload petitions must be approved by a counselor. Excessive unit overloads will require an appointment with the Dean of Counseling Services.

Dropping Courses

A student may drop courses online or submit a 鈥淐hange of Program (green add/drop card) card鈥� to the Admissions and Records Office. Classes dropped up until the 20% point in the course do not appear on the student鈥檚 transcript. Courses dropped after the 20% point and before the 75% point in the course will result in a 鈥淲鈥� and does not include a refund. All withdrawals must be initiated prior to the 75% point of that particular course. Students should be aware that the 鈥淲鈥� will be taken into consideration in determination of progress alert or disqualification status. Students must clear all obligations to the college prior to withdrawal.  

Withdrawal from a class after the 75% point (final drop deadline) may be authorized in the event of extenuating circumstances. Extenuating circumstances are verified cases of accidents, illnesses, or other circumstances beyond the control of the student. Should a verified condition require a complete withdrawal after the final drop deadline, a student may file a petition at the Admissions and Records Office. If the circumstances require a medical withdrawal, a medical withdrawal includes an 鈥淓W鈥� (excused Withdrawal), does not include a refund and can only be granted for all courses in a particular session at 小优传媒. A partial medical withdrawal can apply only to ES/DANC activity courses or to courses completed prior to the medical incident. The student must file a petition with documentation to the Admissions and Records Office for these types of withdrawals. Documentation must address how the medical issue impacts your studies or enrollment.

 

Military withdrawals shall not be counted in progress alert and dismissal calculations. No refunds will be given for military withdrawals.

 

It is the student鈥檚 responsibility to clear all obligations to the college prior to withdrawal. Additionally, it is the student鈥檚 responsibility to officially drop courses they are no longer attending. If a course is not officially dropped, the student may receive an 鈥淔鈥� for the course.

 

 

Attendance Requirements

Instructors are obligated, at the beginning of the semester, to announce to their students their policy regarding excessive absence. When absences exceed the number of hours that a class meets in a week the instructor may drop the student from the class. Failure to attend the first class meeting (no show) may result in the student being dropped from the class.

It is the student鈥檚 responsibility to discuss anticipated extensive absences with the instructor. Make-up work for an absence of any kind must be completed to the satisfaction of the instructor. No absence relieves the student of the responsibility of completing all work assigned.

Deficiency Notes

It is assumed at 小优传媒 that students are aware of their academic progress in any course at any time; however, when in the instructor鈥檚 opinion, a student is deficient in a course, the instructor may require a conference with the student to discuss his/her progress. Notice that course work is deficient may be conveyed to the student either in writing or by oral communication. The college does not require official notification by the instructor when a student鈥檚 work is unsatisfactory in a course.
