The College of Education recognizes the importance of supporting students with their education. This page provides common policies and forms used by students. Step-by-step instructions are provided to students and faculty on how to complete these forms.
The Incomplete (I) grade is a temporary grade indicating that work in the course was acceptable, although a required portion of it was not completed because of illness or other serious circumstances beyond the student's control. The I grade may not be used for the convenience of the faculty member or student. If a student has quit attending without withdrawing from the course or contacting the instructor in writing, the appropriate final grade is an F.
Steps:
The College recognizes that life may require a natural interruption of studies. Students may take a Student Leave of Absence (SLOA) for up to four quarters. Additional requests beyond four quarters are addressed individually on a case-by-case basis by the associate dean.
Steps:
Although the advisor need not sign, additional signatures may be required (e.g., if the student is receiving financial aid or scholarships, etc.). The associate dean must approve of any SLOA request. To return, students must notify their faculty advisor and associate dean to reenroll at SU prior to the start of the quarter.
Students may complete the Withdrawal Request Form if they intend to depart with no intent to return. Although no one from the College needs to sign the form, additional signatures may be required (e.g., if the student is receiving financial aid or scholarships, etc.). Students will not have access to financial aid, registration, housing, and other campus services.
Steps:
Graduate students who do not register for three consecutive academic terms (excluding summer) by the census date of the third term may be administratively withdrawn by the Office of the Registrar. Students who are administratively withdrawn must apply for readmission.
A Hardship Withdrawal allows students to withdraw from one or more classes in a given term, and results in the assignment of an HW grade. Hardship Withdrawals are reviewed for approval by the Associate Dean in situations in which one or more of the following has occurred: (1) incapacitating illness or injury to the student, (2) a catastrophic event involving the student (3) catastrophic illness in the immediate family or (4) death of an immediate family member.
Steps:
There is a separate tuition refund process that is available through student financial services that coincides with the hardship withdraw. Refunds are based on normal refund schedule for each quarter. Students can appeal this for the following reasons: three days of hospitalization, death in immediate family and on a case-by-case basis.
Steps:
In response to the disruption of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are amending the university grading policy for fall, winter and spring quarters. Please review the following guidelines for each quarter.
Steps to Change Grade to CR:
Students have between December 9, 2020 to February 1, 2021 to submit the Petition to Change a Grade form to the Registrar’s Office to change a grade to Credit (CR) for approved courses in the COE. For courses where students are able to choose a grade of "Credit," the COE as a college will stay with the standard threshold for receiving "Credit" (C or above for graduate students; D- for undergraduates). Students will need to contact their faculty advisor to discuss what courses are eligible for the CR option.
