Course Waiver

In rare cases a course waiver may be approved. If a course is waived the student does not have to take the course, but also does not receive credit. The approved waiver removes that specific course from the program of study requirements, but students will likely need an additional course to have enough hours to graduate.

Required documents

  1. A letter from the student indicating the reason for the waiver. Include the course number, course name, and course description for the course that is being requested to be waived.
  2. Verification from the student's advisor that he or she is in agreement with this course of action.
  3. After completing the academic appeal paperwork, the School Dean in charge of the student's major should sign the appeal form.
  4. Once all documents and signatures have been obtained, bring the appeal form to the Office of the Registrar to be reviewed by the Vice President for Academic Affairs. You will be notified in writing of the outcome of your appeal.
