It is
your responsibility as the student to initiate a change in registration
through IQ.Web (current students prior to the Friday before the start of the
semester) or in the Registrar's Office by completing and submitting a Change
of Registration Form (new students
before and after the start of the semester and current students after the start of the semester) to the
Registrar's Office. Clarkson College will not be responsible for completed
forms, which are given to faculty or staff for submission. ONLY Student Financial
Services may authorize reimbursement of fees or tuition. Deans, Directors,
faculty or staff are not authorized to approve reimbursement.
Adding Courses
Adding
a course or transferring from one section of a course to another may be
completed through the first five days of instruction in a semester. After the
designated time, the approval of the instructor and the appropriate Program
Director is required. Online courses need the approval of the instructor and
appropriate Program Director once the semester begins. Refer to the Tuition
Refund Schedule to see if a fee may apply.
Dropping Courses
A
course may be dropped prior to the beginning of the semester and a refund
granted if it is accomplished according to the Tuition
Refund Schedule.
Waitlist Courses
Prior
to the start of the semester, students are able to waitlist a course; as
seats become available, an e-mail is sent to them in the order they are in on
the waitlist. Please be aware that waitlisting a course is not a guarantee
that a seat will open in the course or that a new section will be added to
the schedule. Always register for an alternative course to maintain desired
credit hours. Once the semester has begun, students will no longer be added
to the waitlists, instead they will need to check with the Registrar's Office
for availability and follow the Change
of Registration procedure.
Waitlists
Waitlists
are available for any course which reaches its maximum capacity. If a seat in
a course you have waitlisted opens, you will be notified once by e-mail to
your Clarkson College webmail account. You will have 48 hours after the
e-mail is sent to register for the course, if you do not register after the
48 hours you will be dropped from the list. Please drop any courses in a
waitlist that are no longer needed. Since there is no guarantee a course will
open or that a seat will become available, you should register for another
section or an alternative course, even though this may not be your first
choice. Program Directors will monitor the waitlists to see if there is a
possibility of opening another section. If you find conflicts in your
required major courses, you will need to contact your program director and
notify them of the conflict. Once the semester begins, waitlists are no
longer available.
Withdrawing Courses
A
course may be withdrawn from the beginning of the semester through the 10th
week during a 15 week course, the 8th week of a 12 week course, or
the 3rd week of a 6 week course; a "W" grade is recorded on the
student's permanent record. If a student withdraws from a course after this
time, a grade of "WP" (Withdrawal Pass) or "WF" (Withdrawal Fail) will be
recorded on the student's permanent record. Courses may NOT be withdrawn during the final exam period under and
circumstances. A refund may be granted if the withdrawal is accomplished
according to the Tuition
Refund Schedule.
Leave of Absence
A Leave
of Absence (LOA) is a "Time certain" withdrawal from Clarkson College. Leaves
are granted for a minimum of one semester and a maximum of three consecutive
semesters. Any student on LOA who
does not register in any classes after three consecutive semesters will be
automatically withdrawn from the College. For further information refer to
the Clarkson
College Academic Catalog, contact your advisor or contact the Registrar's
Office.
Official Withdrawal from the
College
Students
in good standing who wish to discontinue enrollment at Clarkson College may
do so by withdrawal. The student must see their advisor to initiate the
process. Students who withdraw from the College must reapply for
admission. If the student is unable to complete the degree because of
changes in the Catalog, the program Dean/Director, upon approval of the Vice
President of Academic Affairs, may determine substitutions.
