A student can customize a major course of study based on individual academic interests and professional objectives. Individualized majors and minors are intended for those students whose academic interests cannot be pursued by following established majors. Students interested in an individualized major must obtain approval from their faculty advisor and two other sponsoring faculty members. All individualized majors must meet the minimum standards for majors established in the College Catalog. Applications for an individualized major must be submitted to the Curriculum Committee for approval by the end of the sophomore year, or by the end of the first semester after transfer.

A student can customize a minor course of study based on individual academic interests and professional objectives. Individualized minors are intended for those students whose academic interests cannot be pursued by following established minors. Students interested in an individualized minor must obtain approval from their faculty advisor and two other sponsoring faculty members.

On rare occasions, it may be desirable or necessary to substitute a required course in a student’s program of study with another course, due to curricular objectives, professional objectives, or scheduling necessity.

Pass/Fail
A junior or senior may elect to register for some courses on a pass-fail basis, provided the courses do not fulfill general education requirements and are not in the area of the major or minor concentration. The aim is to encourage students to broaden their understanding by exploring less familiar fields. This form, with signatures, must be filed in the Registrar’s Office before the first day of the semester. Changes to or from pass-fail shall not be made after the first day of class. A student may not count more than 18 hours of pass-fail credit toward graduation. To receive a grade of “pass,” a student must earn at least the equivalent of a “C” in the course. A grade of “P” will count toward semester hours earned but not be computed in the grade point system. A grade of “F” under the pass-fail option is not included in the grade point average. All non-credit courses rae graded as pass-fail; some may be required for graduation.

Audit
A student may exercise the audit option under the following provisions. A grade of “AU” means that in the judgement of the instructor, the student has attended the course regularly. It must be arranged with the instructor and have advisor approval (via this form) and be registered in teh same manner as any other course. It will be given final approval if a seat in the course is available after all credit enrollments have been served. It may not be changed to a credit basis after the fifth day of the semester, which is the last day to add a course. After the tenth day of the semester, the fee will not be refunded and the audit must be satisfactorily completed or assigned a grade of “W.” A credit course may be converted to audit through the 10th day.
