Drop Policy for Online Program and Online General Education Classes A student must participate (respond to a discussion thread or complete an assignment) by 11:59 PM on the Sunday of the term/semester to be considered enrolled. Failure to participate by this deadline will result in the student being dropped from the college, and courses will be deleted from the student’s permanent academic record. (See the Tuition and Fees section of the Catalog for refund policy.) Faculty are required to submit participation/ non-participation grades by 11:59 PM on the Monday following the term/semester start. Census will be completed on the Tuesday following the term/semester start. Once a student participates in an online course, it is his or her responsibility to officially withdraw from the college or drop a course by officially notifying the Registrar’s Office in writing if he or she finds it necessary to drop or withdraw. A student in an online learning cohort is enrolled for a semester of courses. Once a student has attended beyond the drop period of the term/ semester, charges will not be adjusted for dropped courses. Certain enrollment changes may result in complete loss of aid eligibility for the entire semester, even if those funds have been posted to the student’s account. For a student who withdraws or stops participating entirely, charges and financial aid will be adjusted according to the refund policy (prorated) at that point. Once census date has passed, failure to continue participating in class, without official notification of withdrawal, will result in an of ‘F’ and a withdrawal calculation (including return of financial aid funds).

Grades of “DR” indicating withdrawal from school will be given to the student who properly withdraws. Earned grades will be issued for courses completed prior to the student’s withdrawal (including failing grades). A student planning to withdraw from school should consult the Financial Aid Office regarding regulations for satisfactory academic progress. In addition, a student should confer with the Business Office to settle his or her account. The Registrar staff will notify administrative departments of a student’s request to withdraw. COURSE CANCELLATION The College does not guarantee offering all or any of the courses listed in this Catalog. When there is inadequate registration for a course, it may be cancelled without notice. The Registrar will attempt to notify all students of course cancellations before the first meeting of the semester. CLASS ATTENDANCE Regular class attendance is critical to the learning process.
