Credit in Courses "By Special Assessment"

In special circumstances, students may obtain credit in certain courses "by Special Assessment," as outlined in the Undergraduate Admissions section of this Calendar (see A.20.5). Application for such credit should be made on the appropriate form and requires the approval of both the Department offering the course and the office of the Associate Dean (Academic).

Course Work at Other Institutions for Transfer of Credit

Students may be authorized to take some of their program course work at another institution if their registration as a Visiting Student is acceptable to that institution. Permission for such authorization must be given on a Letter of Permission form and requires the approval of the Associate Dean Academic. The Letter of Permission must be obtained before the student registers for the courses at the other institution.

It will be the responsibility of the student to ensure that an official transcript of grades is forwarded directly to the Registrar of this University so that appropriate credit may be officially recorded. Students must obtain a grade of at least "D" or equivalent in courses proposed for transfer credit. Grades obtained in transfer courses will not be used in the computation of the student's grade point average in this Faculty.

Course Load

The equivalent of five full courses in the Fall and Winter Terms represents a normal full load. Students may register in additional course work, however, with the approval of the Faculty Advisor.

Full-time student status is obtained by registering in the equivalent of three half courses per term. This is important for eligibility for funding, health and dental insurance, the U-Pass, and other services at the University.

Repetition of Courses

A student may repeat a course previously attempted (including withdrawals) only once. Exceptions to this regulation may be made only in unusual circumstances and at the discretion of the Faculty Advisor.

Students admitted as non-matriculated adult students will not normally be eligible to repeat course work until their matriculation deficiency has been cleared.

Students will not be permitted to withdraw more than once from a particular course. Students will be required to withdraw if they have accumulated a total of more than five full-course equivalent withdrawals while in attendance at the Áù¾ÅÉ«ÌÃ.
