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2.1 If a course is withdrawn within the first 14 days of a regular semester (7 days for a summer session), the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2.2 If a course is withdrawn after the first 14 days (7 days for a summer session) but not later than the first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 />
