Institutional Assessment of Student Academic Performance

无码巨乳 is committed to the continual improvement of its educational programs. The University periodically conducts assessments of student outcomes; therefore, a student can expect to participate in academic outcomes assessment activities during his or her time of enrollment.

Class Section Cancellation

The institution reserves the right to cancel any class section due to insufficient enrollment.

Classification

Good Academic Standing

A student is considered in Good Standing when the overall cumulative GPA is 2.00 or greater

Credit Definitions

Regular Credits

College credits are expressed in semester hours or credit hours.

Credit Hour Equivalency

1. One hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction and a minimum of two hours of out-of-class student work each week for approximately 15 weeks (does not include final exam time) for one semester or the equivalent amount of work over a different amount of time; or
2. 50 minutes of classroom instruction plus additional out of class work (the general expectation is two hours) for 15 weeks is the basis for a credit hour; or
3. a minimum of 2,250 minutes per three semester hour course of instruction, which does not include final exam time; or
4. an amount of work represented in intended learning outcomes that are at least an equivalent amount of work as required in paragraph (1) of this definition for other academic activities including laboratory work, internships, practica, studio work, and other academic work leading to the award of credit hours.

Laboratory Credits

Two hours of laboratory work are usually accepted as the equivalent of one hour of regular class work. The actual number of hours is determined in order to satisfy the course objectives.

Credit by Examination

Credit is allowed for CLEP, General and Subject Examinations, the Advanced Placement program, IB, GCE-A/AS, and DSST examinations as approved by the Academic Council and department chairs. The number of credits allowed for satisfactory performance on the general examinations may be reduced by the amount of credit the student has previously earned in the subject matter areas covered by the examinations.

Some departments of the University have developed challenge examinations in areas which, with approval of the Academic Council, can be used in lieu of certain required courses. Consult the appropriate department chairs for additional information.

Experiential Credit

无码巨乳 recognizes that learning equivalent to the college level can occur outside the formal structure of accredited colleges and universities. Policies and procedures have been established for the assessment of this learning based upon the 鈥淧rinciples of Good Practice in Assessing Experiential Learning鈥� recommended by the Council for the Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL).

In addition, credit as recommended by the American Council on Education may be granted for learning acquired through military, industrial, or regionally accredited technical school training programs where the learning is applicable to the student鈥檚 degree program. Experiential credit is considered non-traditional credit.

Provisional Credit

If a student meets regular admission standards and has earned college level courses at an unaccredited institution of higher learning, the student may be given provisional credit. However, the credits will not be considered for acceptance until the student has completed 24 credit hours with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better at 无码巨乳. Credits will be reviewed by the Dean of the Discipline and the Record鈥檚 Office. A determination will be made based on (1) the unaccredited institution鈥檚 affiliation with the Commission for Higher Education Accreditation; and/or (2) acceptance of credit by at least three other accredited institutions located in the area of the unaccredited institution.

Transfer Credit

Transfer credit is defined as college credit that was earned at a regionally accredited institution and is transferable and accepted for credit toward degree programs at 无码巨乳, and credit recommended by the American Council on Education.

In addition, credit as recommended by the American Council on Education may be granted for learning acquired through military, industrial, or regionally accredited technical school training programs where the learning is applicable to the student鈥檚 degree program.

See the Admissions chapter of this catalog for more information regarding transfer credit.

Transient Credit

A currently enrolled student who wishes to study at another institution for a term should consult with the Record鈥檚 Office concerning procedures and required approvals. Any courses taken by a student after the initial registration with 无码巨乳 must have prior approval by the University and department, and transient hours must be included with the student鈥檚 semester load for load-limit purposes. If a student takes coursework at another institution without proper transient authorization, the University reserves the right to deny credit for these courses. No more than six semester hours of credit may be taken as Transient after the last term of enrollment with 无码巨乳 University.

Course Sequences

In general, students should take all required courses in their plan of study in the appropriate numeric sequence when possible, unless otherwise stated in this catalog or by the student鈥檚 assigned academic advisor. Courses and programs that have prerequisite requirements must not be attempted until the necessary prerequisites have been satisfactorily met.

Advanced Courses

Advanced courses are courses at the sophomore level or above.

Upper level courses

Upper level courses are courses at the junior level or above.

Numeric course sequencing

• 0090 sequence: Developmental/remedial courses (do not count toward degree requirements)

Credit Load Calculation

Definitions

• A 鈥渟emester鈥� is defined for hour limit purposes as 16 weeks of class meetings.
• A 鈥渢erm鈥� is defined for hour limit purposes as up to a nine week period of class meetings.

Fall, Spring, and Accelerated Semesters/Terms

• Minimum Full-Time Undergraduate Load: 12 semester hours (six semester hours for accelerated semester/term schedules).
• Maximum: 18 semester hours (10 semester hours for accelerated semester/term).
• Overload: 19-21 semester hours (11-13 semester hours for accelerated semester/term schedules). Credit overload requires unconditional admission status, a minimum institutional GPA of 3.5, recommendation from the student鈥檚 academic adviser, and signature of the dean or designee. Undeclared majors requesting an overload must have the signature of the Associate Provost/Dean of Undergraduate Studies or designee.
• Students on academic probation: Limited to 13 semester hours (seven semester hours for accelerated semester/term schedules)

Summer Semesters (Alabama Campuses)

• Minimum Full Time Undergraduate Load: 9 to 12 semester hours (over the entire summer). Students are advised that full-time status for federal financial assistance is 12 semester hours.
• Maximum: 13 semester hours

Undeclared majors requesting an overload require the signature of the Associate Provost/Dean of Undergraduate Studies or designee.
• Students on Academic Probation: Limited to 10 semester hours.

Important note regarding concurrent enrollment: Within the beginning and ending dates of a fall or spring semester, concurrent enrollment in the semester and any term(s) may not exceed 24 hours. Enrollment in more than 18 hours for a semester or 10 hours for a term requires a student to meet the University policy for an overload. The semester block of time includes all transient credit approved for the student as well.

Concurrent enrollment in the summer semester and any term(s) may not exceed 13 hours. Enrollment in more than 13 hours requires a student to meet the University policy for an overload.

The maximum number of overload hours for any fall or spring semester block of time is 18. The maximum number of overload hours for any fall or spring semester block of time is 24. Students will not be permitted to enroll in more than 24 total hours in a semester block of time. Students will not be permitted to register for more than 21 hours in semester classes. Students will not be permitted to register for more than 13 hours of term classes. All overload requests must meet the criteria identified above.

Drop

A student who wishes to reduce, but not entirely eliminate, his or her credit load may drop a course. Students may drop a course or courses online via Student Planning, or submit a request in the Record鈥檚 Office.

The last day to drop a course will be assigned for each term, session or semester based on 65% completion of the length of the course. Dates will be published in the Academic Records web page (). The 65% rule also applies to international teaching locations.

• From Early Registration through Late Registration-Free Course Schedule Adjustment Period
  Students may drop a course or courses during the Free Course Schedule Adjustment Period. Tuition and refundable fees will be returned.
• From the end of Late Registration (Free Course Schedule Adjustment Period) through the last day to Drop
  A non-punitive grade of DR will be assigned up until the last day to drop, as posted in the Schedule of Classes and on appropriate web pages. Students may not drop after the deadline. Any student who fails to do so will be assigned a grade.
• Extenuating circumstances such as military deployment must be properly documented before an exception will be considered.

Grade Appeals

Faculty members have the authority to grade student work and to assign grades, these are academic judgments. A faculty member鈥檚 syllabus enumerates student academic performance expectations and consequences. Faculty members render academic judgments when a student鈥檚 academic performance violates established standards or fails to meet stated expectations. Academic judgments, made by faculty, are based on academic content, course requirements, and student performance. Students may not appeal grades based on allegations concerning the competence of a faculty member, the fairness of examinations, the difficulty of a course, or other matters of a purely academic nature. Grades for individual assignments and exams may not be appealed. While it is recognized that faculty hold the right and responsibility to grant a grade, a student who receives a course grade that he or she believes to be unwarranted for reasons other than those listed above may appeal that grade using these stated procedures:

Step 1. Within the first four weeks of the start of the following term or semester in which the grade is received, the student shall have informally appealed the grade to the instructor. If that instructor is not teaching at 无码巨乳 during the term following issuance of the grade, the student will make contact with the instructor through the department chair to informally appeal the grade. In the case of a course taught through TROY Online, students should contact their home campus or site to determine the person designated by the appropriate college dean to assist the students with their appeals.

Step 2. If the issue is not resolved at this informal level and the student wishes to pursue the appeal, the student shall request in writing a meeting with the respective department chair. This request shall be addressed to the department chair and shall be received no later than the end of the fifth week of instruction for the term or semester following issuance of the grade. The request must summarize the student鈥檚 complaint and the student鈥檚 informal appeal to the instructor. In the case of a course taught through TROY Online, students should contact their home campus or site to determine the person designated by the appropriate college dean to assist the students with their appeals.

Step 3. Within two weeks of receipt of the request, the department chair shall discuss the appeal with the student and with the instructor, separately or at the same time. If the department chair upholds the decision, the matter is closed. The decision is final.

Step 4. If the department chair does not support the decision of the instructor, the matter shall be appealed within two weeks of the department chair鈥檚 decision to the designated associate dean or dean of the college. The department chair will forward the appeal package to the designated associate dean or dean. The designated associate dean or dean will empanel three full-time faculty colleagues from the department and/or discipline to review the matter. The decision of this panel shall be final and binding on all parties.

Note: Students may not use this procedure to appeal grades resulting from violations of academic honesty. Students should refer to the Oracle, the University鈥檚 official student handbook, for those appeals.

Grade Point Average (GPA)

The grade point average is computed by dividing the number of credit hours attempted into the total number of grade points earned. The official transcript displays two GPA types: (1) The institutional GPA is based on hours attempted with 无码巨乳 only; (2) the Cumulative GPA is based on hours attempted with 无码巨乳 and transfer institutions.

Graduation

Students must complete degree requirements within eight years after first entering 无码巨乳 or student will be moved to the current catalog. Students not attending 无码巨乳 for two consecutive calendar years must meet all degree requirements of the current Catalog at the time of readmission.

Filing for Graduation

A Graduation Application must be filed according to the published dates.

Degree Plans / Academic Evaluations

Academic evaluations are available to students online through the Student Planning module. However, evaluations are not considered official unless issued by or stamped by an academic evaluator or designated representative of the University Registrar鈥檚 office. Notation of this official review can be found under the 鈥淪how Program Notes鈥� section of Student Planning/My Progress.

Honors and Awards

Chancellor's Honor List

Full-time undergraduate students who are registered for 12 semester hours and who earn a grade point average of 4.00 qualify for the Chancellor鈥檚 List, which is published at the end of each term. A 无码巨乳 part-time student who earns a 4.00 grade point average on 12 consecutive semester hours of credit will also be named on the Chancellor鈥檚 List.

Provost's Honor List

Full-time undergraduate students who are registered for 12 semester hours and who have a grade point average of 3.65 or higher qualify for the Provost鈥檚 List, which is published at the end of each term. A 无码巨乳 part-time student who averages 3.65 or higher on 12 consecutive semester hours of credit will also be named on the Provost鈥檚 List.

Graduation with Honors

To be eligible for graduation honors, students must have earned a minimum of 30 semester hours of non-pass/fail work at 无码巨乳 prior to their final registration. Honors will be calculated based on the average of all hours attempted at 无码巨乳 and transfer credit, excluding any remedial courses.

Please note: Due to the unavailability of grades for the final semester during the time commencement programs are printed, honors designations are based on the grade point average earned through the previous academic term. Final academic honor designations are determined after grades have been posted. Final, official honor designations will be printed on the transcripts. Diplomas will be reprinted for students whose last term alters the honors designation.

Undergraduate honor students are awarded differentiated diplomas as follows:

• Cum Laude: Grade point average of 3.40
• Magna Cum Laude: Grade point average of 3.60
• Summa Cum Laude: Grade point average of 3.80

Inclement Weather and Emergency Situations

Both faculty and students are responsible for meeting all assigned classes. In the event of inclement weather, faculty and students will be expected to attend classes as usual as long as they may do so without risking peril to themselves or to others. During periods of inclement weather, faculty and students will not be penalized for absences dictated by perilous conditions. In severe cases of inclement weather or other emergency conditions, each campus or site will announce cancellation of classes through local and regional media as well as through the University鈥檚 website.

As part of 无码巨乳鈥檚 efforts to provide accurate, timely information to our University community, the SOS communication system delivers emergency notices to a variety of electronic devices. To subscribe to SOS visit the SOS鈥� Emergency Information web page at .

Incomplete Grade

This incomplete grade policy replaces all other incomplete grade policies as of August 9, 2012.

If a student is unable to complete all course grading requirements, the student may be eligible to request the assignment of an incomplete grade. An incomplete grade is not automatically assigned by the instructor, but must be requested by the student and approved by the instructor. The decision to approve or reject a student鈥檚 request for an incomplete grade is at the discretion of the instructor using the following criteria:

• Student submits a completed 鈥淧etition for an Incomplete Grade鈥� form prior to assignment of a course grade.
• Student鈥檚 progress in the course is deemed satisfactory.
• Student is passing the course when the request is made.
• The circumstances that prevented the student鈥檚 completion of course requirements are beyond the student鈥檚 control, and adequate documentation is provided.

Time limit for removal of incomplete grade

Any student who receives an 鈥淚鈥� must adhere to the deadlines set by the instructor for when required assignments must be received. The deadline must not exceed 9 weeks from the date of the end of the term that the 鈥淚鈥� was awarded. All set deadlines apply whether or not the student enrolls for the semester or term following the assignment of the incomplete grade. Work received on or before the instructor set deadlines will be graded and computed into the final course grade. The instructor will submit a 鈥淐hange of Grade鈥� form to the registrar on or before the last day to remove an Incomplete from the previous semester or term published in the University鈥檚 master calendar. Student assignments not received by instructor deadlines will not be graded and a 鈥淐hange of Grade鈥� form will not be submitted. If a 鈥淐hange of Grade鈥� form is not submitted by the appropriate time, the 鈥淚鈥� will automatically be converted to an 鈥淔I鈥�. An 鈥淔I鈥� is calculated as an 鈥淔鈥� when determining grade point average.

Placement in Academic Courses

A student may be placed in an advanced section of a given subject area if the student鈥檚 record indicates a high degree of achievement or if it indicates the student has successfully completed studies that should not be duplicated. 无码巨乳 does not accept placement exemptions granted by other institutions. Students are allowed one subsequent retest in both Math and English after their initial attempt at placement testing. Students must wait a minimum of 30 days before being allowed to retest. Any placement exams taken within the 30 day wait period will not be accepted. All placement test scores must be less than three (3) years old to be accepted by 无码巨乳.
