32 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE No student should leave Cedarville College without following proper withdrawal procedures. In withdrawing, a student must secure an official withdrawal form from the Registrar's office and return it signed by all the college personnel listed on it. He should give the Business office at least two days' notice of his intentions to withdraw if he expects to have any money refunded before he leaves. Any failure in following the proper withdrawal procedures will result in an assessment of $5.00 being added to the account of the withdrawing student. Transcripts of withdrawn students will be marked as follows: Withdrawal through the fourth week-"W" Withdrawal from the fourth through the sixth week-"WP" or "WF" Withdrawal after the sixth week-"WF" except in cases of serious ill– ness or certain approved circumstances The ID card must be turned in to the Registrar's office on the student's last day on campus. CLASS ATTENDANCE The objectives of class attendance generally include the development of personal motivation for appropriate attendance and the exposure of students to different attendance procedures. In general it is to be noted that regular attendance is necessary for the student to receive full benefit from his college experience. Since there are several different ways in which ideal class attendance may be achieved, official faculty policy allows each faculty member to determine and develop attendance standards which will meet the particular needs of his own class. THE GRADING SYSTEM Grades are issued at the end of each quarter. However, first quarter fresh– men receive mid-term academic warnings if their grades are "D" or "F". It is the responsibility of each student to discuss his academic achievement with his instructor. Grades received in courses indicate to the student the fields for which he has the greatest aptitude. A student with low grades in a major or minor field is advised to select another field of concentration. A-This grade is given in recognition of excellent achievement. It is indicative of superior work in quality and reveals a thorough mastery of the subject matter. The student receiving this grade should demonstrate enough interest to do some independent in– vestigation beyond the actual course requirements.
