2010-2011 CATALOG COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS Enrollment Limitations on Enrollment Students who fall into the following categories may not be allowed to register: • Students who are on academic probation are subject to dismissal from the college. These students will be required to meet with an academic counselor before they are allowed to register for classes. (See page 27 for more information.) • Students who want to register for more than 18 units. These students will need approval from an academic counselor or advisor. • Students who are subject to conduct suspension or dismissal from the college. These students may only register if they have approval from the Vice President or his designee (Eureka Campus, Eureka Downtown Instructional Site, Klamath/Trinity Instructional Site, Arcata Instructional Site) or the Deans of the Mendocino Coast and Del Norte Educational Centers). 5. Complete a Student Educational Plan After the semester is underway students are strongly encouraged to make an appointment with a counselor or advisor to develop a Student Educational Plan (SEP). This plan serves as a roadmap for the student as s/he progresses through the institution toward degree or certificate completion, and is based on each student’s individual needs, personal/outside commitments, and educational goals. For those who are undecided about their educational plans, it is especially important to meet with a counselor or advisor during the first semester of enrollment. Because these plans take concentrated time to develop, it is best to get them done mid-semester: October/November and February/March are the best times to do this. registration & fees Student Responsibilities Report Change of Address to the College A student who changes his/her place of residence (or changes any other address that may be used by the college to conduct official business) should report the change promptly to the nearest instructional site, or online through WebAdvisor, www.redwoods.edu/webadvisor. Although this may not seem crucial at the time the change is made, financial aid checks, paychecks, and important registration and graduation information from the college may not reach its intended destination if this information is not kept up-to-date. Report Changes in Academic Interests to the Counseling and Advising Center The more current a student’s educational plan, the more likely it is that s/he will progress through the required coursework in the most efficient way possible. Students thinking about making a program change should be sure to consult with the staff in the Advising/Academic Support Center to understand how the change may affect the achievement of their new or their original educational goal. Students, who have attended another institution, must request a trasncript evaluation by contacting the Academic Support Center at 476.4150. Attend Courses on a Regular Basis Since regular attendance is a critical factor in student success, students at the College are expected to attend all sessions of each class in which they are enrolled. In general, absences may be considered excessive when the number of absences exceeds the total number of hours that the class meets during one week. All faculty are encouraged to include information about their attendance requirements in their course outlines; students should make certain they understand the attendance standards that are to be met in each class. Students who know that they will be absent from class for more than one week should notify the instructor in advance. Withdrawing from Classes Students are responsible for officially withdrawing from classes they are not able to complete. Students who withdraw on or after the third Monday and before the end of the tenth week of full-term spring or fall classes will receive a “W” (Withdrawal) on their academic record. For short-term classes, use this formula to calculate the withdrawal window: students who withdraw on or after 20% of the way through the class and before 62.5% of the class will receive a “W” (Withdrawal) on their academic record. Students who stop attending a class without officially withdrawing will receive an “F” (Failure) on their academic record. Officially Withdrawing from All Classes There may be times when a student may need to drop all of his/her classes. When this occurs, the following steps must be followed: • Withdraw from all classes. • Return all equipment/tools/books that belong to the college. • Pay all loans and financial obligations to the college. • Contact the Financial Aid Office (if a financial aid recipient.) If these steps are not done, re-enrollment may be blocked and CR transcripts and other important records may not be released to the student or other institutions or agencies. Understand and Follow Degree or Certificate Requirements Although counselors and advisors are available to help students plan their programs, each student is responsible for following the regulations set forth in the catalog and for selecting courses that will enable her/him to achieve the desired educational goals. Adding Courses After the Semester Begins Students may be allowed to add classes during the first week of the semester with instructor approval. 12 College of the Redwoods Web Site - www.redwoods.edu
