20 ♦ Students who have completed less than 30 credit hours may register for only one CR/NC class per semester. ♦ Students who have completed 30 or more credit hours, and have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.00, may register for a maximum of two CR/NC classes per semester. ♦ The CR/NC option may be selected via the Internet or in-person at the registration windows during all phases of registration, i.e., through the first week of the semester, or a course may be changed to CR/NC within the first eight weeks of the semester at the registration windows in the Student Service Center, or at the Davis Campus. The deadlines for the summer term will vary. Please Note: * CR/NC courses do not count toward general education or major/minor requirements. ♦ A maximum of 20 hours of CR/NC courses may be applied toward graduation. ♦ Credit (CR) will be recorded for earned letter grades of C- and above. * No Credit (NC) will be recorded for grades below C-. ♦ Students who stop attending classes for which they have registered CR/NC, without officially withdrawing, will be given an unofficial withdrawal (UW) grade which is counted as an E in GPA calculations. • Students who later change their program of study and need a letter grade for major or minor requirements may petition through the Registrar's Office for a CR to be changed to a letter grade. Audit Course Registration ♦ Students may register to attend a class on an "audit" basis, i.e., without earning credit or a grade, if there is space available in the course. ♦ A course may be selected for audit during registration or changed to audit within the first eight weeks of the semester with the consent of the instructor. The deadlines for the summer term will vary. Please Note: * Audit students failing to attend class may be issued a withdrawal (W) at the discretion of the instructor. * Tuition and fees must be paid according to the current schedule. ♦ Some courses are not open to audit registration. ♦ Senior Citizens (Utah residents ages 62 and over) may audit a course for a $10.00 fee per semester, on a space available basis, by applying at the Admissions Office. Registration Credit Hour Loads ♦ It is recommended that undergraduate students planning to graduate with a bachelor's degree in four years, register for at least 15 credit hours per semester. ♦ Undergraduate students are classified as full-time if they register for 12 or more credit hours, as three-quarter time with 9 credit hours, and as half-time with 6 credit hours. ♦ Graduate students are classified as full-time if they register for 9 or more credit hours, and as half-time if they register for 5 or more credit hours. Overload Registration ♦ Students may register for a maximum of 20 credit hours without special permission. ♦ Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or better may petition for a maximum of 24 credit hours, and students with a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or better may petition for additional credit hours. Petition forms are available from academic departments or the Registration Office. Withdrawal ♦ Students may drop classes via the Internet or at the registration windows (main campus and Davis campus) through the end of the first week of instruction. To drop courses after the first week of school students must contact the Registration Office. Courses dropped during the first three weeks will not appear on the transcript. ♦ From the fourth through the eighth week of the semester, students may withdraw from individual classes by completing a "Withdrawal from Class" form and submitting the completed form to the Registration Office. Courses dropped during this period will appear on the transcript with a "W" notation. ♦ Students may completely withdraw from the semester by dropping all classes at the Registration Office or at the Davis Campus up to and including the last day of instruction prior to final exam week. A "Complete Withdrawal" form must be completed. The notation "Registered and Withdrew" will appear on the transcript of students who completely withdraw after paying tuition and fees.
