Show Student Records B. Students with 44 credit hours may register for no more than two courses per quarter on credit/no-credit basis. II. Further criteria for a CR/NC system: A. A maximum of 30 hours credit for CR/NC courses can be used for graduation, exclusive of student teaching credit, special examination credit, School of Education IPT program (Individualized Performance Based Teacher Education Program), Nursery School Practice Teaching, Methods classes, Family Life Practicums, Radiological Technology Practicums, Respiratory Therapy Clinical Applications, Manufacturing Planning I, II, III, and Convocation credit. B. No course taken on a CR/NC basis will count toward major, minor, general area, or specific course requirements (with the exception of the specific course requirements in Physical Education and those exceptions noted in II A above). C. Grades on the CR/NC system are not included in computing the term or cumulative grade point average. A grade of CR is equivalent to a grade of D and above. D. If the student changes his major, the Registrar reconverts to the letter system those credits earned under the CR/NC system in the new major. E. Grades of CR/NC may not be used to satisfy the repeat course policy. III. Mechanics: A. Choice of the CR/NC courses should be made during registration but course registration may be changed the first sixty percent of the quarter. (A student may add a CR/NC course during the specified period for adding courses.) If the student withdraws from a CR/NC course, he withdraws under the current procedure for withdrawal. B. The course instructor is unaware of who is taking a class for regular credit or CR/NC grades and gives only letter grades on Final Grade Cards and Report of Grades to Register Form. IncompletesAn Incomplete may be given by an instructor in a class when the student is unable to complete the classwork for legitimate reason and, in the opinion of the instructor, can complete the required work of the course without re-registering for the class. The required work must be completed and a grade reported to the Registrar's Office within a 12-month period following the receipt of an Incomplete. For good reasons, a student may petition the Admissions, Credits and Graduation Committee for additional time to complete the work. Generally, an extension will not be longer than one additional quarter. Any extension of time authorized beyond the 12-month period following the receipt of the Incomplete will be specifically shown on the petition. If the petition is approved, copies of the authorization should be sent to the appropriate department and instructor. When the instructor gives an Incomplete, he/she must file a Report of Incomplete with his department, specifying what must be done for removal of the Incomplete. The report should be made in triplicate, one copy for the Registrar's Office, one for the Department, and one for the student. An Incomplete remains on the official permanent record card unless made up within the 12-month period following the receipt of the Incomplete or within an approved extension of time. A course for which an Incomplete is given will not be considered in calculating G. P. A. Repeat CoursesA student may repeat a course in which he has received a low grade. The original grade will remain on the record. When a class has been repeated, the grade earned the last time the course is taken is the grade used in calculation of the student's grade point average. (Grades of CR/NC may not be used to satisfy this policy.) A student repeating a course must notify the Registration Office upon receiving credit for the course. Changing of GradesGrades entered with the Records Office shall be unalterable except when written explanation to the Admission, Credits and 30 Financial Aids Graduation Committee is expressly made by the teacher concerned. Grade changes are permitted only when there has been an error in the computing or recording of grades. Make-up ExaminationsNo make-up examinations are allowed except on (1) the approval of the class instructor, (2) the payment of a one-dollar fee to the Cashier, and (3) the presentation of the receipt of such payment to the instructor concerned. FINANCIAL AIDS The Financial Aids Program, consisting of work-study part-time employment, grants, and loans, is established to help the student who, through necessity, is partly self-sustaining.
