Academic Information Academic Information III. Mechanics A. Choice of the CR-NC courses must be made during registration and may not be changed following registration. (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. He fills out all grade cards with letter grades. Repeat Courses—A student may repeat a course in which he has received a low grade. The original grade(s) will remain on the record. When a class has been repeated, the grade used in calculation of the student's grade point average is the grade earned the last time the repeated class was taken. A student repeating a course will notify the Registrar's Office. Changing of Grades—Grades entered with the Records Office shall be unalterable except when written explanation to the Admissions, Credits and Graduation Committee, or to the Administration, is expressly made by the teacher concerned; and then, only in the event that error in recording or computing grades is shown to be the cause for the change. Make-up Examinations—No make-up examinations are allowed except on (1) the approval of the class instructor, (2) the payment of a one-dollar fee to the Treasurer, and (3) the presentation of the receipt of such payment to the instructor concerned. Non-Resident Regulations-A student classified as non-resident of the State of Utah is required to pay a special non-resident fee. Any non-resident student who has reason to believe he can qualify for resident status must file a petition with the Dean of Admissions &r Records before he registers. Petition forms are available in the Office of Dean of Admissions and Records. Each petition will be considered in accordance with the following provisions of Title 53-34-1 of the Utah Code Annotated (Supp. 1863). The meaning of the word "resident" for the purpose of this act shall be determined by reference to the general law of the subject of domicile, except that the following rules shall be observed; (a) No person can acquire a domicile by living in the State of Utah when such person lives in Utah for the purpose of at tending or enabling a minor child to attend an institution of higher education. (b) A student whose family residence is not in Utah cannot acquire domicile unless he or she has lived in the state for one year prior to registration in a post-high school educational institution. (c) A student whose family moves to Utah with the intent of taking up permanent residence shall be immediately eligible to register as a Utah resident student. (d) No student shall lose his domicile for educational purposes by the removal of his parents or guardian from the state during the continuous period of his higher education. (e) The domicile of a minor shall be that of his father; in the event of the death of his father, that of his mother; and in the event of death of both parents, that of the last deceased parent unless a guardian has been appointed. Letters of guardianship are not conclusive for purposes of determining domicile within the meaning of this act. In the event of divorce or separation, the domicile of the minor shall be that of the person to whom custody has been awarded, or that of the mother, if no award has been made. (f) Each person serving in the United States armed forces, assigned to duty in Utah, and members of the family of such persons who live in Utah shall be deemed residents for the purpose of this act.
