2010 Catalog cover - The Athenaeum Of Ohio

Academic Requirements: An auditor will be
subject to the same attendance requirements as the
credit student. He/she also will be expected to do
the required reading for the course as well as to
participate in class discussions, reports, etc.
Normally, he/she will not be expected to take any
examinations nor to write any papers which would
be required by the professor for the purpose of
evaluating academic performance. The student will
not receive a grade for such a course.
Registration Requirements: Students are to
register through the office of Dean of the Athenaeum,
Seminary Dean or LPMP office if they
wish to audit a course. The title of the course plus
the notation “audit” will then be entered upon the
student’s transcript.

Incomplete: If a student cannot finish all the work
for a course by the end of the term, the course
instructor may give the student permission for an
incomplete. Deadline for completion of the
incomplete work is two weeks after the end of the
quarter. An instructor may grant an extension
beyond this period after consulting with the Dean or
LPMP office and then notifying the Registrar in
writing. If the student’s work is not completed within
the allotted period, the incomplete becomes
permanent.
When an incomplete is reported, the Registrar
enters an I on the permanent record and treats the
I as an F when calculating the grade point
average. After work is completed and the final
grade reported to the Registrar, that grade is
entered in place of the I and the grade point
average is recomputed to reflect the grade change.
Withdrawal: To withdraw from a course, a
student must receive written permission from the
Dean or LPMP office. The student is responsible
for filing with the Registrar the Withdrawal from
Course form with signed approval indicated. If
withdrawal from a course is completed within the
first two weeks of a quarter, the course title does not
appear on the permanent record. After that time, a
W (withdrawal) or WF (withdrawal failing) is
entered behind the course title.
Audit and CEU: The record of a student taking a
course for audit will be marked aud. If the course
is taken for continuing education credit, the student’s
record will be marked with a CEU and the number
of units earned.
