regular grades, at the discretion of the participating faculty member. Although correspondence study cannot replace the experience gained through the actual classroom instruction and discussion, occasional utilization of correspondence study may be appropri– ate. Cedarville College does not offer such courses. However, the college recognizes and recommends several programs. Informa– tion concerning these programs is available in the Academic Records Office. The total number of quarter hours of correspondence study ac– cepted toward completion of degree requirements shall not ex– ceed fifteen. In order for correspondence study to be acceptable, prior permission must have been received for each course from the instructor of the course involved, the academic counselor, and the academic vice president. Correspondence study is not counted as residence credit, and therefore cannot be counted toward the residence requirements. Permission forms are available in the Academic Records Office. Credits received for correspondence study are treated in the same manner as transfer credits. Registration The dates of registration for each session are listed in the col– lege calendar. Preregistration periods may be designated for stu– dents in residence. 1. Registration Materials. Each student will receive a Class Reg– istration Form (CRF) and schedule of classes with instructions in his post office box. 2. Arrangement of Schedule. Although each student has an academic counselor to help with scheduling, the student is en– tirely responsible for his course of study. 3. Approval of Schedule. Each student must have his schedule approved by his academic counselor. 4. Payment of Fees. Each student will receive a Student Data Sheet (SDS) in his post office box. This includes his schedule and financial statement. The fee schedule must be approved by the Business Office before registration is considered com– plete. 5. Drop/Add. Any course changes must be made by a drop/add sheet. These may be obtained in the Academic Records Of– fice. Students are urged to register on the days provided. Nominal charges must be paid for late registration. Changes in the program caused by cancellation of courses will not involve financial penalty. The catalog used when the student first matriculates is usually followed in defining graduation requirements. Therefore, he should keep that catalog as a guide in case changes are made in course or graduation requirements.
