The regulations cover such points as degree and graduation requirements; maximum and mini- mum loads; grades and averages; probation, suspension and exclusion for academic reasons; withdrawals; absences or unsatisfactory work; classification of students; and petitions and appeals. Student Responsibility Each student is responsible for registering for the proper courses and for fulfilling all requirements for a degree. The faculty and the student's adviser will assist and counsel, but the student must take the initiative and assume responsibility for meeting all requirements. The student's program of study is subject to the approval of his or her adviser and the depart- ment chair of the student's major. A student majoring in a department in the college who has skill or content deficiencies may be required to take courses to remove the deficiencies. Each student is responsible for completing all courses for which he or she is registered. Courses may be dropped or changed without penalty only with adviser approval. Seniors must file a formal application for degree in the Office of the University Registrar no later than the deadline published in the uni- versity calendar (see Table of Contents). Summer Attendance Students having fewer than 60 hours at the time of first enrollment in the State University System must earn at least nine hours prior to graduation by attending one or more summer sessions. Students needing an exception or fur- ther clarification of this policy should contact the college's Office of Student Affairs. Transfer or Correspondence Credit Transfer and/or correspondence course credit may be allowed even if taken after the student has been admitted to the major. Students are discouraged from taking such courses after the first 60 hours unless they have secured PRIOR approval from their major department. In general these courses are recorded on the student's transcript and may be used to meet curricular requirements if approved by the department. S-U Option Undergraduate students may take elective course work under the S-U Option. S-U grades do not carry grade point values and are not com- puted in the UF grade point average.

The student fails to follow the prescribed degree program as outlined for the major. A student in either situation may be placed on college probation. A hold will be placed on the student's record and continued registration will be denied. Students must meet with their academic adviser to determine a plan of action to ensure successful completion of a degree before the hold will be removed.
