Registration dates will be published annually in the
school calendar. In-house memos, the video information
system, the school newsletter, and other correspondence
may also be used to notify students and employees of
registration dates and times. Individual notices will
be sent to new students only. Students are responsible
for keeping apprised of registration dates and times.
Contact the Office of Student Affairs concerning registration
information.
Registration
Eligibility back
to top
Students who have received an official letter of acceptance
to the school and continuing students not on academic
suspension may register for classes. Students enrolling
under the special admission provisions are also eligible
to register for certain classes.
Registration
Procedures back
to top
Registration for credit classes occurs in three phases
at Lanier Tech:
- Advisement/Registration for currently enrolled students
- A restricted registration held only for currently
enrolled students.
- Pre-Registration – An early registration held
for new students who have completed all admission
requirements.
- Late Registration - An open-to-all registration
for new, current, and former students regardless of
their admissions classification.
Quarterly
Course Schedule back
to top
The quarterly course schedule contains information concerning
registration. Students are urged to become knowledgeable
about these instructions and to follow them explicitly.
Any deviation from the prescribed procedure may result
in unnecessary delays in registration or errors in the
resulting schedule. Advisors are available to students
for academic advisement and scheduling of classes. Applicants
will not be approved for academic advisement and/or
registration until formally accepted by the Admissions
Office nor will they be permitted to attend classes
until registration has been completed.
Matriculation
back
to top
Registration is not complete until fees are paid. Students
who receive any type of financial aid must visit the
Financial Aid Office each quarter.
Full
Time Student Status back
to top
A student must be registered for a minimum of 12 quarter
credit hours to be considered a full-time student.
Maximum
Number of Credit Hours back
to top
A student may not register for more than 18 credit hours
without approval from the Vice President of Instruction.
Registration
Errors back
to top
It is the student's responsibility to complete the proper
forms and procedures for registration or changes to
registration and to verify that his/her schedule of
classes is correct. The Registrar‘s Office cannot
be held responsible for errors resulting from the student's
failure to execute the proper procedure or verify his/her
schedule at the time it is received. Any problems experienced
at registration or as a result of registration should
be reported immediately to the Registrar.
Auditing
Courses back
to top
A student who wishes to audit a course(s) and receive
no credit may apply as a special admissions student
if not already enrolled as a regular student. By registering
as an audit student and paying the regular fees and
tuition, a student is permitted to audit a course. Students
auditing courses are not required to take exams; however,
the instructor may request that students demonstrate
required knowledge before being allowed to perform certain
tasks to operate equipment. A student is not permitted
to change from audit to credit or from credit to audit
after the drop/add period. However, a student will be
permitted to register for the course for credit at a
later date. Students desiring to change from audit to
credit must meet all necessary admission requirements.
A grade of "AU" will be entered on the permanent
record. Courses taken on an audit basis will not be
used for certification for financial aid, the President's
List, Social Security, or Veteran's Administration education
benefits. To audit a class, a student should contact
his/her advisor or the Admissions Office.
Adding
Courses back
to top
Through the end of the fifth day of the quarter, a student
may add a course to an already existing schedule. To
add a course, a student must obtain a Drop/Add Form
from his/her advisor, obtain the signature of the advisor,
sign and date the form, and submit it to the Office
of Student Affairs prior to the close of the office
on the fifth day of the quarter. Students who add a
course may owe additional tuition and fees (see Financial
Information).
Dropping
Courses back
to top
Through the end of the fifth day of the quarter, a student
may drop a course from an already existing schedule.
To drop a course, a student must obtain a Withdrawal
Form from his/her advisor, sign and date the form, and
submit it to the Office of Student Affairs prior to
the close of the office on the fifth day of the quarter.
Note: This deadline is strictly enforced. A student
who drops a course may be due a refund (see Refund Policy).
Withdrawing
From Courses back
to top
Through the end of the last day of the quarter, a student
may withdraw from a course. To withdraw from a course,
a student must obtain a Withdrawal Form from his/her
advisor, sign and date the form, and submit it to the
Office of Student Affairs immediately but no later
than the close of the office on the last day of the
quarter.
Note: This deadline is strictly enforced.
A student dropping a course on or after the first day
of the quarter but by the midpoint date of the quarter
will receive a grade of "W." A student who
drops a course after the midpoint date will be assigned
a "WP" or "WF." A student who withdraws
from a course prior to the first day of the quarter
or during the five-day drop period may be due a refund
of tuition (see Refund Policy). Students on financial
aid should be aware that a drop or withdrawal may affect
their financial aid.
Withdrawing
From the Institution back
to top
Through the end of the last scheduled class day of the
quarter, a student may drop all courses thus withdrawing
for the quarter. To withdraw for the quarter, a student
must obtain a Withdrawal Form from his/her advisor,
sign and date the form, and submit it to the Office
of Student Affairs immediately. The Withdrawal Form
must be turned in to the Office of Student Affairs
no later than the close of the office on the last day
of the quarter. A student who withdraws may be due a
refund of tuition and fees (see Refund Policy).
Note: This deadline is strictly enforced.
If a student withdraws prior to the first day of the
quarter, no grade will appear on the student's official
academic record. A student who withdraws after the first
day of the quarter will be assigned a grade of "W"
in each class if the withdrawal is completed by the
midpoint date of the quarter. A student who withdraws
after the midpoint date will be assigned a grade of
"WP" or "WF" if the withdrawal is
submitted to the Office of Student Affairs by the close
of the office on the last day of the quarter.
Note: Students who stop attending
a class, but do not complete a Withdrawal Form and submit
it to the Office of Student Affairs in the required
manner, will remain on the class roll and will be assigned
an appropriate grade on the final class roll based on
the class requirements. It is the student's and not
the instructor's responsibility to complete and submit
this form.
No-Show
Policy/Reinstatement back
to top
For day students, any student who does not attend at
least one day during the first two class days or contact
their instructor will have his or her registration terminated.
For evening and Saturday students, any student who does
not attend the first night of class, the first Saturday
class, or contact their instructor will have his or
her registration terminated. Any no-show student whose
registration is voided and who seeks reinstatement must
obtain approval from the Vice President for Student
Affairs. If reinstated, the student must reregister.
A late fee may be charged.
Note: Some classes have waiting lists.
When a no-show student's registration is canceled, students
on waiting lists are given the opportunity to register.
This means that no-show students may lose their place
in class.
