• Students who have declared a degree program should consult with an advisor in the department responsible for that program.

Students are academically and financially responsible for the classes in which they enroll. They are released from this obligation only by the formal termination of their enrollment as described below.

Students who drop all classes for which they are enrolled prior to the first day of classes are credited with a 100% refund of tuition and there will be no record of the semester on the student's permanent record.

 

Submit this form for Audit Grading.

Requirements:

• You must be registered in the designated course prior to submitting the form. 
• Undergraduate students are permitted to take one course each academic year with a PASS/NO CREDIT grade type.  
• You may not elect PASS/NO CREDIT grading in more than four courses or in courses taken to satisfy your major program or University degree requirements. 
• You do not earn academic credit for courses taken with an AUDIT grade type; however, standard course fees are assessed.

These requests may be submitted to Niner Central or the Office of Adult Students and Evening Services (OASES).

• Each course/section has a specified enrollment limit. When enrollment in a course section reaches the limit, it is considered "closed" and no further enrollments will be processed.
• Students wishing to enroll in a specific course/section which has closed may contact the academic department offering the course to request that the department enter an electronic override in a closed or restricted section. The decision to enter the course is strictly that of the department offering the course.
• These overrides are displayed in the Registration Status link under the heading of Overrides and Authorizations. The student must then complete the enrollment process by using the Web System and enrolling in the class. 

Policy on Continuous Registration

• Students in graduate degree programs are required to maintain continuous registration (Fall and Spring semesters) for thesis, dissertation, project, or directed study until work is completed.
• Students are not required to enroll in any Summer term unless they are using University resources or they are completing degree requirements in that term.
• Students using University resources should enroll in the number of graduate credit hours that best reflects the amount of resources being used (typically three (3) or more graduate credit hours).
• The continuous registration requirement begins with the semester in which the student first registers for his/her thesis, dissertation, project, or directed study.

Note: Students must be enrolled during the term (semester or summer) in which they graduate from the University.

• Current students who are not enrolled and are not using University resources may apply for a leave of absence.
• Students choosing this option must file a Graduate Academic Petition for a leave of absence that states they will not use University resources during the leave period.
• If the leave of absence extends beyond one calendar year, the student’s matriculation is closed and the student must re-apply for active status in the graduate program.
• International students on F-1 visa/status must remain continuously enrolled until the thesis, dissertation, project or directed study is completed.
• Those international students who wish to apply for a leave of absence are advised to consult with the International Student/Scholar Office prior to filing the Graduate Academic Petition for leave of absence.
• Students experiencing a medical emergency or other crisis should contact the Dean of Students Office.
• Students with questions about the leave of absence option can contact The Graduate School.

Distance Education program courses have an eight (8) as the middle section designation for Fall, Spring, and Summer terms, (i.e. x8x). The other two section number designations may be a letter or number (i.e. 085 or 08L). Section numbers are always three (3) characters and you will find them at the end of the course number.

• In the spring and fall semesters, Distance Education program courses also have a Distance Education Campus code instead of Main/Uptown Center Campus designation.
• In the summer terms, all online course sections have a Distance Education Campus designation. You will be able to determine if the course is a Distance Education program section by the first two digits of the section number which is 58x for Summer First Half Term and Summer Full Term and 78x for Summer Second Half Term.

Contact your Academic Advisor or Distance Education, DistanceEd@uncc.edu, if you are unsure of which course section(s) are for your distance education program.
