<strong>Undergraduate</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong> <strong>2011</strong><br />

7. The number of students enrolling in a course may be restricted due to some constraints, such as limited<br />

laboratory equipment and classroom size.<br />

8. Students who do not register by the first 4 weeks of a semester will be dismissed from SIIT.<br />

Auditing a Course<br />

1. With permission by the instructor and the advisor, a student may audit a course without evaluation. The<br />

student must pay the tuition fee for the course.<br />

2. Auditing may not be changed to regular evaluation after the second week of a regular semester.<br />

3. A grade report will bear "AUD" for the audited course after such a course is completed.<br />

4. The number of credits for an audited course will be counted towards the upper limit of the number of credits<br />

allowed in a semester, but will not be counted towards the lower limit.<br />

5. The credit(s) of an audited course will not be counted towards the total credit accumulation.<br />

6. An audited course cannot be reregistered at a later time for formal evaluation unless there is a change in the<br />

student's study program that warrants the need for formal evaluation of the course.<br />

Course Addition/Withdrawal<br />

1. If authorized by the advisor, course addition must be processed within the first 14 days of a regular semester<br />

or within the first 7 days of a summer session.<br />

2. If authorized by the instructor and the advisor, course withdrawal will result in one of the following cases:<br />

2.1 If a course is withdrawn within the first 14 days of a regular semester (7 days for a summer session), the<br />

academic record will not bear the title of such a course.<br />

2.2 If a course is withdrawn after the first 14 days (7 days for a summer session) but not later than the first<br />

ten weeks (4 weeks for a summer session) of a regular semester, the academic record will bear the title<br />

of such a course and a W grade.<br />

2.3 Course withdrawal after the first 10 weeks of a regular semester (4 weeks for a summer session) is not<br />

allowed unless special permission is obtained from the director. With the approval from the director, the<br />

course will bear a W grade.<br />

3. A withdrawal that reduces the number of credits to less than 9 credits is prohibited.<br />

Leave and Suspension<br />

1. A student can apply for a leave of absence. This must be approved by the director on the condition that the<br />

student has an appropriate reason. However, a student cannot take a leave during the first two semesters of<br />

his/her undergraduate study unless the Thammasat University Rector approves the request.<br />

2. A student cannot apply for leave for more than two consecutive semesters unless the Rector of Thammasat<br />

University specially permits it.<br />

3. A leave will result in one of the following cases:<br />

3.1 If the first day of leave falls within the first 14 days of a regular semester, the academic record will not<br />

bear any of the titles of the registered courses.<br />

3.2 If the first day of leave falls after the first 14 days, but no later than the first ten weeks of a regular<br />

semester, the academic record will bear W grades for all the courses registered in the current semester.<br />

3.3 A student can apply for leave after the first ten weeks of a regular semester only if there is an<br />

uncontrollable reason. A student or a student's trustworthy representative is required to submit an<br />

application for leave with creditable evidence to the academic program.<br />

4. A student who is suspended from studying during a semester due to disciplinary cause will not be permitted to<br />

take the final examination. This penalty will be recorded on the student's academic record. No grades or<br />

credits for the courses registered in the current semester will be given. A suspended student must pay a fee<br />

for maintaining his/her student status, unless he/she has paid the educational support fees.<br />

5. A student who is permitted to take a leave or suspended before paying the educational support fees must pay<br />

a fee for maintaining his/her student status.<br />

6. Leave, suspension, or re-admission cannot be used as a reason to extend the maximum limit of 7 years to<br />

complete the degree requirements.<br />
