Students will be allowed no more than four attempts at the Georgia History exam and four attempts at the U. S History exam. Students may major in more than one subject area. All degree requirements must be met for each department in which a major is declared. The student will be assigned an adviser in each subject area. The degree residency classification does not affect fee assessment. For more information on residency for in-state tuition purposes click here.
All undergraduate degree candidates must complete a Senior Exit requirement in their major field of study during one of their last two semesters prior to the completion of degree requirements.
This requirement is determined by the major department and may be an examination, a portfolio, completion of a course, or other method of assessment. Students who are required to take a test should check with the Center for Testing , Room in Lanier Hall, to determine the type of test, application procedures and deadlines required for their majors.
These students are encouraged to register for the exam the semester before they plan to test. Timely inquiry, correct application, and registration are the responsibility of the student. The Senior Exit requirement is an important part of the student's participation in assessing institutional effectiveness and fostering program improvement.
Results of exit requirement will be part of the student's permanent record. While the hours for these courses will still count toward your full-time status for the Fall semester and will still appear in your hours earned, when you apply for graduation any hours earned in Wellness or Orientation courses will be manually excluded. Students have ten calendar years from the year they are admitted to GCSU to complete their bachelor degree. Students must graduate under the degree requirements in effect in the catalog under which they entered.
Students who take longer than ten calendar years to complete their degree requirements must repeat the courses, if they're still required, that were taken before the start of the ten-year period. The student is hereby informed and given due legal notice that all of these decisions are within the prerogative of the University, as previously determined by the courts, and are not subject to disciplinary-type due process requirements or strict application of contract law.
Students are responsible for keeping themselves apprised of current graduation requirements for the degree programs in which they are enrolled. Information of this type is available primarily in the catalog. Any changes made since the publication of the catalog are available from the Office of the Registrar, and the Dean of the School in which the student is enrolled.
Students are encouraged to check their degree requirements by using the Degree Evaluation tool - DegreeWorks - on the secure myCats page. After paying the application fee at the Business Office, the applicant should meet with his adviser to complete the application and obtain the signature of both the adviser and department chairperson.
The graduation application must be returned to the Office of the Registrar for processing. The Office of the Registrar will complete the evaluation of the application and forward a copy to the student showing approval, missing requirements, or denial.
Students will not be allowed to graduate with any outstanding requirements. Any student unable to complete all requirements for graduation after formally applying for a degree will be unable to graduate. Students will be notified if graduation requirements are not completed, and the student will be required to resubmit an application for graduation for a future semester.
The University holds a formal commencement each year at the end of the Spring Semester. Diplomas are mailed following graduation. Graduating students are responsible for maintaining a current permanent home address or informing the Office of the Registrar of a diploma mailing address. Students who have completed all degree requirements will be invited to participant in commencement exercises. Students who have not yet decided upon a major are assigned advisers from The Center for Student Success.
Eligible students who POUNCE establish contact with faculty from their intended major, create an optimal schedule for their entering term, and have their course registration completed prior to attending one of the New Student Orientation programs. Students will be sent notification of procedures via e-mail. Students may register for the upcoming term online from their myCATS account.
Registration instructions , including information on viewing holds, are available online. Students may not register if holds are found on their record that block them from registering. Students with an adviser hold must obtain approval from their faculty advisor to add a class. Changing course sections does not require the approval of the advisor when using the Course Change Card. To add courses after the add period, a student must submit a Course Change Card to the Office of the Registrar.
The approval of the Chairperson, advisor, and the instructor are required on the card. No credit will be awarded in any course for which a student is not properly registered. No approval is required on the Course Change Card to drop a course during this time period. Exact dates for add and drop periods are listed in the Academic Calendar. After the drop period, but on or before the last day to drop a course without academic penalty unless previously assigned an 'F' by the professor for excessive absences , students may drop courses by submitting the Course Change Card to the Office of the Registrar.
Approval of the instructor and faculty advisor are required. A student, who drops a course after the last day to drop a course without academic penalty unless previously assigned an "F" by the professor for absences , will receive a grade of "WF" Withdrew Failing for the course.
Undergraduate students who first matriculate at GCSU in Fall or later semesters may accumulate no more than five W grades. Once a student has accumulated five W grades, all subsequent drops will be recorded as WF. If a student withdraws from the university or drops a class due to an approved documented hardship, those W grades will not be counted as part of the five maximum.
To withdraw from the University, a student must complete a Withdrawal Request. Failure to withdraw officially will result in the grade of 'F' in all courses.
A student who withdraws from the University either temporarily or permanently at any time after the last day to drop a course without academic penalty unless previously assigned an 'F' by the professor for excessive absences will receive a grade of 'WF' Withdrew Failing for each course being carried at the time of withdrawal.
However, with the approval of the class instructor, the student may petition the Dean of the School of the student's major for a 'W' Withdrew or 'I' Incomplete if the withdrawal is due to nonacademic extenuating circumstances and the student is passing all courses at the time of withdrawal.
The timing of withdrawals in order to avoid academic penalty is the responsibility of the student. Deadlines are published in the University Calendar. Except in emergency situations, a student shall, upon request, be accorded a meeting with a University official or a hearing prior to a final decision concerning his or her continued enrollment at the University.
Any student may audit any course with the permission of the instructor. Audited courses will not be counted as part of the normal course load and no grades will be awarded. Instructors may set special conditions for students who audit their courses.
Audited courses will be designated with a grade of V and will be considered in fee assessment. Auditing a course will not prevent a student from taking the course for credit at a later time. Students must register as an audit student and pay regular tuition and fees. Changes from audit to credit or vice-versa cannot be made after the last day to add courses. Departments may offer courses by individual instruction only in an emergency situation in which a student must have the course immediately and only with the consent of the appropriate instructor and department chairperson.
Independent course study offerings are found in the undergraduate course description section of the Catalog. Independent study courses include only those areas of research, study, or investigation beyond those normally offered in the department curriculum.
The mission of University System of Georgia Independent Study is to offer University System academic credit courses to University System students and individuals who are interested in earning academic credit through self-directed study.
It provides freedom from the classroom structure and, as a result, places the responsibility for learning directly on the student. It allows flexibility of registration, permitting students to register at any time and take several courses simultaneously with up to a year to complete each course.
Independent Study courses are offered by academic departments located at senior institutions of higher education within the University System of Georgia. Faculties of the academic departments prepare the courses offered and grade lessons submitted by students to satisfy requirements of the courses. Academic credits earned through Independent Study are recorded on the student's permanent record in the University of Georgia Registrar's Office and may be used for degree requirements according to the regulations of the college or university from which the student plans to graduate.
The total number of hours earned through Independent Study that may be applied toward a baccalaureate degree program within the University System of Georgia may not exceed one-fourth of the hours required for graduation. Ordinarily, students are permitted to be transient students for only one semester. Students approved for Academic Renewal are not eligible to take transient coursework. Details may be obtained from the Center for Testing. The general conditions and standards for awarding credit are as follows:.
Students may challenge undergraduate courses, i. A student who wishes to challenge a course must present to the chairperson of the department that offers the course sufficient information to enable the department chairperson to determine the student's mastery of the material provided in the course. A student who is considered eligible for a course challenge by a department chairperson is examined on the course by the faculty of the department according to a procedure established by the department.
This challenge policy does not apply to learning support courses. If the student is approved for credit by examination, the student will pay an examination and recording fee per course challenged. Receipt of payment from the Business Office must be presented to the department chairperson before the examination. The result of the examination is recorded on the Credit by Examination Form provided by the Dean of the School. The Dean of the School will notify the Office of the Registrar of all successful challenges.
If the student successfully challenges the course, the course credit is recorded in the student's permanent record, but no grades or quality points are awarded. There is a limit of one challenge per course. Upper-division credit may be awarded by the Office of Admissions or recommended by the Department Chair of the area in which credit is sought.
Each point represents a quality point earned per semester hour credit. Total quality points are determined by multiplying the number of points awarded for the grade in the course by the number of semester hours for the course. In other words, a student who receives an A in a three-hour course would earn twelve quality points for work in that course.
It should be noted that students may earn credit through wellness activities, internships, student teaching and similar experiences which generate grades of either S satisfactory or U unsatisfactory. When an S satisfactory grade is earned for courses in which credit toward graduation is received, the credit will be counted but there will be no quality points given.
Students may repeat courses under the institutional average. In the calculation of the institutional average only the last grade earned and credit awarded will count toward the institutional grade-point average.
