  1. LEARNING SUPPORT Important Dates and Information

  2. 2 Important Policies • Learning Support (LS) requirements may not be deferred to a future semester; in order to take any college-level credits (1000-level or higher), students must be in the process of satisfying LS requirements. This is a state Board of Regents policy. • If a student withdraws from a LS class, s/he must also withdraw from any college-level courses for which co-enrollment in Learning Support is a requirement. For example, students with a LS Reading requirement may only take POLS 1101 if they are concurrently enrolled in ACAE 0099. Withdrawal from ACAE 0099 would also require withdrawal from POLS 1101. (See next slide for more information)

  3. Courses that may be taken concurrently with LS Reading; courses that may not be taken until LS English or Math completed.

  4. Allowed Number of Attempts for Completion of LS Requirements • ACAE 0099: maximum of 2 • MATH 0097: maximum of 2 • MATH 0099: maximum of 3, for those who begin in MATH 0099 • MLCS 0099: maximum of 3 Notes: Students who have a LS math requirement are allowed a maximum of 3 semesters in which to completely satisfy the LS math requirement. Students must be in the 0099-level course by the third attempt. Remember, MLCS 0099 is not the appropriate LS math for students whose majors require MATH 1111 or higher.

  5. What does it mean to withdraw from a course? • When students withdraw from a Learning Support (LS) course by the midpoint of the semester, that semester’s attempt in LS doesn’t count toward the total allowed attempts. • “Attempt” is defined as any semester in which a student receives any grade other than W. (i.e., A, B, C, IP, F, or WF) • While there are no academic penalties for withdrawing from a class prior to the midpoint, there may be financial aid consequences. • Remember, too, that faculty may have students administratively withdrawn at any point in the semester for excessive absences. This results in a WF if initiated after the midpoint, and a WF in LS counts as an attempt.

  6. Important Dates this Semester • Midpoint (last day to withdraw from a full-session course without academic penalty): Friday, October 10, 2014 • Advising Weeks (meet with your Faculty Advisor to discuss your academics and to plan your Spring 2015 schedule): October 1-24 • Spring registration dates: October 27-November 21. Take your completed, signed Scheduling Worksheet to registration assistance to register for Spring. • Be sure to Check for Registration Time and Holds in your Banner Web account to determine whether or not you have any holdsand to determine your Spring registration time ticket. • Payment deadline: December 5; pay by 5 pm to avoid late fees.
