Adding/Dropping Courses
ADDING A COURSE
A student who wishes to add a course must contact the appropriate GPS Academic Advisor at least three (3) weeks prior to the date of the first class session. A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 is required in order to take more than one course at a time.
DROPPING A COURSE
A student may drop a course only if s/he has not attended any of the scheduled class sessions. A student who decides to drop a course, regardless of the reason(s), must contact his/her GPS Academic Advisor as soon as possible in order to initiate the withdrawal process. The student will receive a 100% refund of all applicable tuition and fees and be charged for the course when it is rescheduled, using the appropriate tuition rate and fee schedule that is in effect at the time of registration.
A student who ceases to attend a course at any point, regardless of the reason(s), and who has attended at least one of the scheduled class sessions, will be issued an “X” (non-passing) grade and charged all applicable tuition and fees.
Dropping a course may adversely affect a student’s ability to satisfy any prerequisite requirements established by his/her chosen program, and thereby delay the student’s completion of the program and ability to graduate in a timely manner. Dropping a course may also affect the student’s academic and/or financial aid status.
