A student is eligible to return unle ss otherwise notified. Academically dismissed undergraduate students may petition for reinstatement under certain conditions. Graduate students with academic deficiencies may be denied permission to continue enrollment in certain programs. If this happens, a student must apply and be admitted to a different degree or nondegree graduate program before continued graduate enrollment is allowed.
Disciplinary expulsion, which can apply both to graduate and undergraduate students, prohibits the stu dent from ever attending Ohio University and from being present, without permission, on any campus of Ohio University.
Students are informed of academic drop actions by their academic deans and of non-academic suspensions by the Office of University Judiciaries. These offices place holds on students' academic records. It is not possible for a student to register while such holds exist. Failure to receive notification by mail has no effect on your status.
ADDRESS, CHANGE OF
It is the student's responsibility to maintain a current address on file with Ohio University. Students can easily update their address by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Update MyAddress under Online Services.
In addition, students may update their address via e-mail by sending their full name, the last four digits of their Person Identification Number (PID) (found on the student ID), and their new address to address@ohio.edu. Address updates may also be reported to the Registrar Services Windows.
It is very important to keep your local and permanent addresses and telephone numbers current in order for the University to communicate important information to you.
Note: International students in F-1 or J-1 sta tus are required to use the online address service to update their addresses with Ohio University to meet immigration reporting requirements.
ADMISSIONS
Learning takes place year-round at Ohio University, and the campus is bustling in the summer, although at a more relaxed pace. The Summer Quarter Schedule of Classes lists many opportunities for summer study, both formal and informal.
Because Ohio University has an open admissions policy during the Summer Quarter, classes traditionally include a rich blend of visiting students from other campuses, interested members of the community, and our own Ohio University students. Together they participate in undergraduate and graduate courses taught by Ohio University’s internationally known faculty, study in specialized summer workshops and institutes led by experts in their fields, and take credit and noncredit courses for profession al development or personal interest. The Summer Quarter Schedule of Classes is your guide to a sensational summer in southeastern Ohio. Additional summer information can be found at www.ohiou.edu/summer.
Students Pursuing a Degree at Another College or University
Admission to Ohio University as a regular degree-seeking student is not required for summer study. Enrollment in Summ er Quarter is open to all students who have earned a high school diploma or its equivalent without regard to age, sex, race, religion, color, creed, disability, national or ethnic origin, or marital status. You may study at Ohio University during Summer Quarter as a nondegree, noncontinuing, or visiting student. To do so, fill out Form A, Nondegree Undergraduate Application and Re-enrollment Form , as well as Form C, Nondegree Registration Form.
Credit generally can be transferred to other institutions. The accepting institution, however, establishes the policy in this matter. You are, therefore, urged to make arrangements in advance so that you will know that the credit you earn will transfer.
Ohio University operates on the quarter system. The course credit val ue in quarter hours is indicated after the course number and title in the course offerings. The following table shows the relative value of quarter and semester hours:
1.5 quarter hours = 1 semester hourNew and Transfer Degree-Seeking Students
3.0 quarter hours = 2 semester hours
4.5 quarter hours = 3 semester hours
6.0 quarter hours = 4 semester hours
7.5 quarter hours = 5 semester hours
If you are seeking a degree a nd are enrolling this summer as a new or transfer student, do not use the application form in the Summer Quarter Schedule of Classes. Contact Undergraduate Admissions, first floor, Chubb Hall, (740) 593-4100, for admission information. New and transfer students planning to continue enrollment for Fall Quarter must meet University application deadlines.
Re-Enrolling Students
See General Information: Registration III. Re-enroll ing Students.
New Student Orientation
New degree-seeking students enrolling during the Summer Quarter must attend orientation. Orientation for students attending either Summer Session will be held on Friday, June 15, 2007, at 8:00 a.m. For more information contact Dr. Richard Linn, (740) 593-1935.
Graduate Students
Registration for any graduate course offered during the Summer Quarter requires official admission to the University with degree or nondegree status. Postbaccalaureate and re-enrolling graduate students should complete Form B, Postbaccalaureate Nondegree Application and/or Graduate Re-enrollment Form, as well as Form C, Nondegree Registration Form.
The conditions of postbaccala ureate admission are the same as for nondegree graduate status (during the Summer Quarter only): (a) admission status terminates after completion of 18 graduate hours, (b) admission to nondegree status does not constitute admission to a graduate degree program, (c) credit earned cannot normally be applied toward a graduate degree at Ohio University. Some graduate courses, such as those in the MBA program, are not open to students admitted to postbaccalaureate status. If in doubt about the acceptability of p ostbaccalaureate status for a specific course, check with the department offering the course.
Enrollment as a new degree-seeking graduate student requires official admission to the University. To receive the necessary application material and information contact the Office of Graduate Studies, McKee House, (740) 593-2800.

AUDITING A CLASS
You may register to audit one or more classes, which allows you to participate in classes without receiving a letter grade or credit hours. The choice to audit must be made and identified at the time of registration. Changes from audit to credit or from credit to audit must be made during the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of the first or second session. Please note that audited classes are used in calculating tuition, but they do not count toward graduation, financial aid, graduate contract registration requirements, or other enrollment eligibility requirements. Audited classes will appear on official transcripts but will not affect the GPA.
Your instructor may set up specific requirements for auditing, and if you do not meet those requirements, you may be removed from t he class at your instructor's discretion with a grade of WP/WF. Be sure to discuss your auditing status with your instructor at the first class meeting.
Do not confuse auditing a class with taking a class under the pass/fail option.
BOOKS, ONLINE PURCHASING
As an alternative to purchasing your books at local bookstores, you may purchase books online by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Textbooks under Resources.
CANCELLATION OF REGISTRATION/WITHDRAWAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY
Cancellation of registration is defined as dropping all classes before the first day of classes. You may do this by using Web Registration.
Withdrawal from the University is defined as dropping all classes on or after the first day of classes. This means all regular Ohio University classes for which you are registered, whether on one campus or multiple campuses. This may NOT be done by using Web Registration. You must go to the student services office in your college or regional campus student services office to initiate the withdrawal process. Graduate students must contact the Office of Graduate Studies. Withdrawal is not permitted on or after the last day of classes (see Summer Quarter Calendar 2006-2007).
Note: Cancelling your class registration does not cancel your housing. You are required to make an appointment with a Residence Life staff member in your building prior to your scheduled check out date and time to properly check out of your room, sign your Room Condition Report (RCR), and return all keys. If you have cancelled your class registration you are no longer eligible to reside on campus and must move out completely within 48 hours.
International students (F-1 or J-1 status) must contact the Office of International Student and Faculty Services (ISFS), (740) 593-4330, prior to withdrawing from the University. Failure to do so may lead to serious immigration problems.
CLASS ATTENDANCE (Two-Hour Rule)
A student who misses the first two contact hours of a class fo r which he/she is registered may be denied permission to remain in the class. A student who has missed the first two contact hours should verify his/her status in the class with the instructor. The instructor has the option of retaining the student. A student NOT retained because of missing the first two contact hours must adjust his/her schedule by dropping the class. Failure to do so can result in an F, FN (failure, never attended), or FS (failure, stopped attending) grade.
Note: A student not retained on the instructor's class roster is NOT automatically dropped from the class. The student must adjust his/her schedule by dropping the class. This policy applies to the first two hours of a class, not the first two days.
CLASSES CANCELLED DUE TO INSUFFICIENT ENROLLMENT
Some classes and workshops listed in the Summer Quarter Schedule of Class es are offered only if enrollment is sufficient. To be certain that a specific course will be offered, contact the department offering the course. To be sure that a specific workshop or special program will be offered, contact the Office of Summer Sessions and Winter Intersession, (740) 593-2583, or (888) 551-6446.
CLASS PERMISSION SLIPS
Class permission slips are to be used when one or more of the following conditions exist:
< br> Permission is required from department/instructor to enroll in class and student has obtained permission.
Student does NOT meet prerequisites but has permission to enroll in class and enforced prerequisites are being waived.
Class is full but student has permission to enroll in class.
Permission to add class after 8th day. (Instructor's permission is required to add a class after the 8th day of th e full Summer Quarter.)

COURSE LOAD
Undergraduate Students
Full-time undergraduate students usually carry a normal load of 16-20 quarter hours (even those students on academic probation). Eleven credit hours is considered full time by the University for fee purposes; however, student athletes and students receiving financial aid must carry a minimum of 12 quarter hours to be considered full time. Students receiving scholarships may have to carry up to 16 quarter hours, depending on scholarship criteria. Student s scheduling more than 20 hours will be charged an additional fee for each hour taken above 20 hours.
Graduate Students
Students with graduate research, teaching, or graduate assistantship appointments must register for a minimum of 12 graduate hours. Some departments require more. Those with fellowships or tuition scholarships must register for a minimum of 15 graduate hours. Undergraduate courses, courses taken for audit, and OPIE language courses cannot be used to meet minimum requirements for graduate student course loads. Students scheduling more than 18 hours will be charged an additional fee for each hour taken above 18 hours.
International Students
To comply with immigration regulations, international students (F-1 or J-1 status) must register as full-time students (undergraduates must take 12 hours per quarter and graduate students must take nine hours per quarter to maintain full-time status). You must not drop any courses that wou ld take you below full-time status without having the prior approval of an advisor in the Office of International Student and Faculty Services (ISFS).
Maximum Credit Hours Allowed Without Permission
Web Registration will allow an undergraduate student to register for a maximum of 20 credit hours and a graduate student to register for a maximum of 18 credit hours in a given quarter. If there is a need for a student to exceed the maximum hours, the student should contact the student services office in his/her college or regional campus student services office for permission. Those students granted permission to exceed the maximum hours will receive Permission to Exceed Maximum Hours forms, which should be returned to the Registrar Services Windows, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall. Web Registration will not allow a student to register for a course that causes the total hours to exceed the maximum hours. For example, a st udent already registered for 16 hours may not add a five-hour course, because this would exceed the limit. The student who is close to the maximum and needs to add a course (and drop another section of the same course) may avoid exceeding the maximum by using the replacement feature in Web Registration. Note that graduate students scheduling more than 18 hours or undergraduate students scheduling more than 20 hours will see an increase in tuition charges.
< /a>COURSE OFFERINGS
In addition to the Summer Quarter Schedule of Classes, search for course offerings by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Course Offerings under Online Services. This information is updated hourly during registration periods. Listings of all classes currently offered and detailed information about each class are included.
DAY KEY (Class Meeting)
The class meeting days of the week abbreviations are: M=Monday, T=Tuesday, W=Wednesday, Th or R=Thursday, F=Friday, S=Saturday, SU=Sunday. If a class meets seven days a week, the days will be displayed as MTWRFSSU.
DEGREE AUDIT REPORTING SYSTEM (DARS)
A DARS report is issued by the college student services office or regional campus student services office upon request. This report includes your Registration Access Code (RAC) and your registration access time. This report helps in determining requirements for graduation by showing progress toward completing those requirements. If you have enrolled at Ohio University Fall Quarter 2005-2006 or later, you may view your DARS report online by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting MyDARS under Online Services.
If you are thinking about changing your major, you may request a "What if" DARS report either from the student services office of the college that offers the major you are considering or from your regional campus student services office. This report will help you determine how courses already completed will apply to the new major as well as what additional courses are needed to comple te that program.
Special Note Concerning Hours and Grades on the DARS Report:
Your official Ohio University transcript lists all courses you have taken or are taking at Ohio University, the grades you have earned, and your official grade point average (GPA). These totals are used to determine graduation rank, graduation with honors, financial aid and scholarship eligibility, fees, and total hours earned at Ohio University that may be applied toward gradua tion from any of the colleges.
Your DARS report shows how these courses and grades apply to the graduation requirements for a particular program. Most of the time the total hours attempted (HA), hours earned (HE), and grade point average (GPA) displayed in the General Graduation Requirements section of your DARS report will match those on your transcript. However, legitimate differences may exist. For example, some colleges have limits on such things as the total number of physical education a ctivity hours that can apply toward degree requirements, and some do not. Some have limits on other categories, such as the number of technical elective credits and number of hours with grades of "CR" that can count toward graduation. Also, there are limits on the total number of hours in developmental courses and the total number of hours with P (pass) grades. All of these count in the total number of hours earned at Ohio University on your transcript, but they may or may not count toward graduat ion depending upon the program you are completing and other limitations. DARS reflects these idiosyncrasies for each individual program counting only the hours and grades that are appropriate for that program, thereby giving you an accurate statement of your progress toward completing graduation requirements for that particular program.
Sometimes discrepancies can exist because students take courses they should not take (for example, Math 163A after passing Math 263A and B). In this case, DARS deducts the credit and grade for Math 163A but Math 163A will still show on the transcript.
DEPARTMENTAL HONORS
Students in a recognized departmental honors program may take a maximum of three graduate courses in their major department during their senior year (i.e., after earning 135 or more hours of credit). Hours earned in these courses will count toward total hours required for graduation and the grades will be calculate d into the undergraduate GPA. Registration in graduate courses requires permission from the instructor. Participation in this option is at the discretion of the department or school. Graduate courses taken in this manner will not apply to graduate credit at a future time.
For Athens campus students, permission slips for departmental honors students may be obtained through the academic departments where the courses are taught. Return the signed permission slip for processing to the Registrar Ser vices Windows, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall, no later than Monday, July 2, 2007, for the full quarter, Monday, June 25, 2007, for the first session, or Monday, July 30, 2007, for the second session.

General education requirement status
Meeting time
Meeting day(s)
Building and room number
Instructor
Course prerequisite "Arranged" indicates that meeting time is an arrangement between the instructor and the student. For example, in a course carrying variable credit hours, credits may be expressed "1-4" indicating that one credit hour is the minimum and fou r credit hours are the maximum number of credits which may be earned for the course. Course catalog numbers indicate the student classification for which courses are designed. The numbers are:

To be certain that a specific course will be offered contact the department offering the course. Search for course offerings by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Course Offerings under Online Services. This information is updated hourly during registration periods.
DIRECTORY INFORMATION DEADLINE
Students who do not want their directory information printed in the annual Campus Directory must complete the Ohio University Confidentiality Status form available at www.ohio.edu/registrar/privacy or from the Registrar Services Windows, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall. This form must be returned to the Office of the University Registrar, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall, within the first 15 calendar days of Fall Quarter. After this time, students may still have their directory information flagged for non-release in the Student Information System (SIS), and the online eDirectory, but not the printed directory which is updated only once per year.
It should be understood that by exercising their option for non-disclosure of directory information, students will no longer be provided with enrollment/degree verification service for employment, insurance discounts, or other purposes. Also, the student will not be lis ted in the graduation commencement program. Confidentiality status is permanent unless removed by written request from the student.

FEE ASSESSMENT INFORMATION
Quarterly fees include the instructional fee and the general fee. Tuition and fee rates are available at www.ohio.edu/bursar. This figure excludes fees for special courses such as art, aviation, education, human and consumer sciences, journalism, music, recreation and sport sciences, and visual communication that are listed in the course offerings. Ohio University reserves the right to make, without prior notice, any fee adjustments that may become necessary.
Fees are assessed based on the following:
I. Campus
Fees vary based on the campus on which student is registered.
II. Course Load
Full-time or standard fees are charged when an undergraduate student sche dules 11 or more hours and a graduate student schedules nine or more hours. Part-time fees are charged when an undergraduate student schedules fewer than 11 hours and a graduate student fewer than nine hours. An Extra-Hour fee is charged for each hour beyond 20 hours for undergraduate students and 18 hours for graduate students.
III. The Level of the Student (graduate or undergraduate) NOT the Level of the Course
Undergraduate students m ay not schedule graduate level courses unless they are admitted to a special program for this purpose. Graduate students taking undergraduate courses pay graduate fees.
IV. Student Status (Athens campus, undergraduate only)
Effective Fall Quarter 2002-2003, new students pay a higher tuition rate than continuing degree-seeking students. This maintains an implicit agreement with continuing students about the level of tuition increases they may expect while providing a means for enhancing academic quality for new students who are asked to pay more.
V. Standing (regional campuses, undergraduate only)
Students who have earned 96 or fewer hours and are registered on a regional campus will pay a lower tuition rate than students who have earned more than 96 hours.
VI. The Residence Classification of the Student
The difference between resident fees and non-resident fees is the out-of-state surcharge for non- Ohio residents. Petitions for change of residency must be submitted to either Undergraduate Admissions or Graduate Studies prior to the last day to register for class for the term you wish reclassification.
VII. Special Course Fees
Those courses listed as having special fees require payment of the special fee in addition to standard fees. Such courses are in art, aviation, education, human and consumer sciences, journalism, music, recreation and sport sciences, and visual communication. For special fees refer to the course offerings.
VIII. Insurance
Ohio University requires that all domestic students taking seven or more credit hours and all international students taking one or more credit hours carry medical insurance if they are enrolled on the Athens campus. An accident and sickness insurance plan designed to supplement the care provided by the Student Health Ser vice is automatically billed to all students meeting this guideline. Domestic students can complete a waiver declaration, if they have comparable coverage. Students must waive the insurance by accessing their current account statement at www.ohio.edu/bursar or by completing a waiver with the Office of the Bursar, ground floor lobby, Chubb Hall, by Monday, July 9, 2007. International students must carry the Ohio University Student Acc ident and Sickness Insurance Plan unless they have a government sponsor. Only the Office of International Student and Faculty Services (ISFS) can waive the insurance plan for an international student.
The accident and sickness insurance plan is also available for dependents. International students are required to purchase the Ohio University policy for their dependent spouses and children. An enrollment card for dependents is available at the Hudson Health Center insurance office. The insuranc e premium is a non-refundable charge.
Regional campus students should contact their regional campus student services office for enrollment information. Regional campus students are not automatically enrolled in an insurance plan.
For further information about the Ohio University Student Accident and Sickness Insurance Plan, contact Hudson Health Center, (740) 597-1816, 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m., Monday - Friday.
IX. Student Legal Service Fee
The Center for Student Legal Services (CSLS) is entirely supported by the fee. All Athens campus students are automatically billed the student legal service fee. If you do not want access to the services, you can opt out by accessing your current account statement at www.ohio.edu/bursar or by completing a waiver with the Office of the Bursar, ground floor lobby, Chubb Hall, by Monday, August 13, 2007. Remember, for only $8.00 you can talk with an attorney, get advice, information, and free mediation referrals.
Regional campus students are not eligible for this service, but multi-campus students may be eligible. If a student takes classes on the Athens campus as well as a regional campus, it is the student's responsibility to have his/her home campus code changed to Athens to be eligible for this service. The student must contact the Registrar Services Windows, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall, or regional campus student services office to have the campus code changed.
Unlike the Student Health Insurance program, the CSLS fee must be processed each quarter. All Athens campus students will be charged and enrolled each quarter. Removal of the fee will occur upon receipt of a written request or completed waiver. The student may complete the waiver/enrollment card at the Office of the Bursar, ground floor lobby, Chubb Hall. The waiver must be completed and submitted by Monday, August 13, 2007.
X. Technology Fee
Students with majors or admission to academic programs in the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business, the College of Education (graduate students only), the College of Health and Human Services (graduate students only), the Russ College of Engineering and Technology, and the Scripps College of Communication will be assessed a fee for computing and other types of technology (regardless of schedule) based on the following charts. Students who are being charged a technology fee for a college where they are no longer pursing a degree should contact that college to officially drop the program. Graduate students should contact the Office of Graduate Studies. Requests should be made prior to Monday, July 2, 2007.

Refund Information
I. Refund of Housing Charges
See General Information: Housing and Food Service Regulations for the refund schedule for housing charges.
II. Refund of Registration Fees Withdrawal from the U niversity and Withdrawal from a Class
Official cancellation from the University, dropping all classes before the first day of classes, entitles the student to a refund of 100 percent of registration fees. Official withdrawal during the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of the first or second session entitles the student to a refund of 80 percent of the registration fees. There is NO refund of registration fees for withdrawals after the 15th calendar da y of the full quarter or the eighth calendar day of the first or second session (see Summer Quarter Calendar 2006-2007).
If a student withdraws from the University before completing full payment of fees, he/she is considered indebted to the University for the amount determined according to the refund regulations. Dropping a class within the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of th e first or second session entitles a student to a 100 percent refund if the reduction places the student in a lower fee category. All courses dropped effective the 16th calendar day of the full quarter or the ninth calendar day of the first or second session will not result in a fee change. Corrected registration that results in increased hours could increase tuition (see Summer Quarter Calendar 2006-2007).
III. Refund of Registration Fees - Flexibly Scheduled Classes
Flexibly scheduled classes (classes that do not meet for the full session/quarter) follow a different schedule for refunds and to remove classes from a student's academic record. Please check with the Office of the University Registrar, first floor lobby, Chubb Hall, (740) 593-4324, or your regional campus student services office for the drop deadline.
IV. Withdrawal Policy for Financial Aid Recipients See General Information: Financial Aid Withdrawal Policy for Financial Aid Recipients.
V. Withdrawal Policy for International Students

FINANCIAL AID
Registered for Summer Quarter
eBills for Summer Quarter are generated by the Office of the Bursar, ground floor lobby, Chubb Hall, and will show ALL financial aid awards which have been a warded at that time. All financial aid recipients must pay the balance due by the regular payment deadline of Monday, June 4, 2007, for Summer Quarter fees and housing charges. Failure to meet this deadline will result in a $100 late payment fee being added to your student account.
Enrollment Status for Financial Aid Recipients
For financial aid purposes, full-time enrollment is 12 credit hours for undergraduate students and nine credit ho urs for graduate students. All undergraduate Ohio residents receiving the Ohio Instructional Grant (OIG) or the Ohio College Opportunity Grant (OCOG) must be registered full time (at least 12 credit hours) to receive the maximum grant. Most Ohio University Athens campus undergraduate scholarship recipients must be registered for at least 16 credit hours per quarter and earn at least 48 credit hours for the academic year. Federal Direct Student and PLUS Loan recipients must be registered at least half time (six undergraduate credit hours or five graduate hours) to receive these loans. Aid recipients registered for less than full-time enrollment may be eligible to receive a proportionately adjusted award amount for certain aid programs.
Financial Aid Credits
The financial aid credits that will be applied to your account include the following: Federal Pell Grant, Ohio Instructional Grant (OIG) or the Ohio College Opportunity Grant (OCOG), Federal Supplemental Educational Op portunity Grant (SEOG), Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Direct Student and PLUS Loans, Ohio University Grants, Ohio University and Corporate Scholarships, and Outside Agency Scholarships (applied once donor check has been received and deposited by the University). If you have been selected for verification, no disbursements of federal, state, or institutional aid will be made unless all requested documents have been received and processed. Federal Work-Study awards are not credited to your account. Those fun ds are disbursed bi-weekly in the form of a payroll check or direct deposited, based on your hours worked for that pay period.
Financial Aid Refunds
Financial aid awards which exceed the amount you owe to the University for Summer Quarter will be disbursed to you as a "refund(s)" during Summer Quarter if you have satisfied the eligibility requirements (i.e., enrolled for sufficient hours, meeting SAP standards, not in default on Title IV Loan, etc.) for each a ward. Refunds for Summer Quarter will start being direct deposited on or about Monday, June 18, 2007, or mailed to your local address beginning Friday, June 22, 2007. Refunds will be mailed to local school addresses or direct deposited. Please be sure your local school address is correct (see General Information: Address, Change of).
Refunds will be processed daily for those students with a direct deposit appl ication on file with the Office of the Bursar. Paper checks will only be printed once a week. Choosing a paper check over direct deposit will delay receipt of your refund. Please note that if you have direct deposit for your University payroll, you will still need to submit a direct deposit application with the Office of the Bursar. Sign up is easy...just visit, www.ohio.edu/bursar, and select Refunds or visit the Office of the Bursar, ground floor l obby, Chubb Hall, on the Athens campus or your regional campus student services office.
Withdrawal Policy for Financial Aid Recipients
Title IV Funds
You are a Title IV financial aid recipient if you receive Federal Direct Loans (Subsidized, Unsubsidized, or PLUS), Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Pell Grant, Federal SEOG, or Federal Stafford Loans (for College of Osteopathic Medicine Students). If you receive Title IV financial aid and officially withdraw from Ohio University, the amount of aid earned and unearned will be calculated using the Federal Return of Title IV Funds policy. This policy is a formula that measures the percentage of days enrolled during a quarter. The percentage is determined by dividing the number of days enrolled by the number of calendar days in the quarter, including weekends and holidays. Based on this percentage, financial aid will be prorated to reflect the amount of aid that was earned during the period of enrollment. The amount of aid that was earned will remain on your student account, and the amount of aid that was unearned will be returned to the appropriate programs. Once the attendance percentage reaches 60%, all Title IV financial aid is considered to be earned.
If it is determined that Title IV funds need to be returned, by Federal Law they will be returned in the following order:
Unsubsidized Federal Stafford LoansState and Institutional Grants
Subsidized Federal Stafford Loans
Unsubsid ized Federal Direct Loans
Subsidized Federal Direct Loans
Federal Perkins Loans
Federal Direct PLUS Loans
Federal Pell Grant
Academic Competiveness Grant
National SMART Grant
Federal SEOG
Other Title IV Assistance
If you receive financial aid that consists of state or University grant funds, they are subject to the University Refund Policy. If you officially withdraw during the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of the first or second session, 80 percent of the grant funds will be returned to the appropriate program. After the 15th calendar day of the full quarter or the eighth calendar day of the first or second session, 100 percent of the grant funds will remain on your student account.
Undergraduate and Graduate Scholarships
If you receive financial aid that consists of undergraduate or graduate scholarships, it is subject to a Special University Policy. If you officially withdraw during the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of the first or second session, 100 percent of the scholarship funds will be returned to the appropriate program. After the 15th calendar day of the full quarter or the eighth calendar day of the first or second session, 100 percent of the scholarship funds will remain on your student account.
College of Osteopathic Medicine Loans and Scholarships
If you receive financial aid that consists of College of Osteopathic Medicine Scholarships, Scholarships for Disadvantaged Students, Loans for Disadvantaged Students, Primary Care Loans, or other non-Title IV aid, you are subject to a Special University Policy. If you officially withdraw during the first 15 calendar days of the full quarter or the first eight calendar days of the first or second session, 100 percent of the scholarship funds will be returned to the appro priate program. After the 15th calendar day of the full quarter or the eighth calendar day of the first or second session, 100 percent of the scholarship funds will remain on your student account.
Unofficial Withdrawals
If you are receiving financial aid and stop attending the University and do not officially withdraw, it is considered an unofficial withdrawal and will be subject to the above Withdrawal Policies. The date of withdrawal will be the date of a student's la st attendance at an academically-related event. If the last date of attendance is unknown, the midpoint of the quarter will be used as the withdrawal date. If you have not attended any classes you are registered for, you are considered an unofficial withdrawal and have not earned any financial aid. Therefore, all aid will be returned to the appropriate program. You will receive FN (failure never attended) or FS (failure stopped attending) grades.
Enrollment Status
If you are receiving financial aid, a change in your enrollment status or your withdrawal from the University may result in you having to repay programs from which you received financial assistance. In addition, you may owe fees to the University after funds are returned to the financial aid programs.
A student is not eligible for a refund until all Federal Title IV programs and other grants and scholarships are reimbursed as required and all outstanding balances with the University have been cle ared.
Specific questions regarding this withdrawal policy can be answered by the Office of the Bursar, ground floor lobby, Chubb Hall, (740) 593-4130.

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
General Education - Tier I English Composition
A first-year composition course and an advanced junior-level composition course are required. Any English 151, 151A, 152, 153, 153A, or 153B will satisfy the University General Education first-year writing requirement (1E). These courses are alternative, not sequential, courses in writing. You should select your course by reviewing the descriptions and choosing the one that appeals to you. (All regional campus students are given a placement test.)
In your junior year, you must take an approved junior writing course unless you demonstrate advanced writing proficiency by passing the junior-level exemption exam. The following courses fulfill the junior-level composition requirement: ART 300J; CLWR 385J; ENG 305J, 306J, 307J, or 308J; FILM 344J; HCGE 345J; HIST 301J, or 396J; HLTH 370J; IART 360J; JOUR 441J; M L 321J or 370J; POLS 305J; PRCM 325J; REC 370J. These courses are marked with the designation (J) following the titl e and credit hours in the course offerings section of the Summer Quarter Schedule of Classes.
If you are a transfer student, your requirements are determined by when you enroll and the number and type of credit hours transferred.
General Education - Tier I Quantitative Skills
First-year and transfer students entering Ohio University after 1980 must demonstrate an acceptable level of quantitative skills in order to satisfy general education requiremen ts. A required math placement test will determine skill level for placement or exemption unless the Tier I quantitative skills requirement has been satisfied by transfer or advanced placement credit. Students in some majors are required to take the math placement test regardless of transfer or advanced placement credit. The choice of the course in which you should enroll (if any) depends on your major, University catalog of entry, math placement, and should be discussed with your academic advisor.
< br> Following is a description of each math placement level:
Developmental (DV1 and DV2)
Placement at either of these levels indicates inadequate preparation to enroll in a Tier I level course. You must complete MATH 101 (and/or 102 on regional campuses) before enrolling in a Level 1 course.
Placement Level 1 (PL1)
Placement at this level indicates preparation for any of the following Tier I-fulfilling courses: MATH 109, 113; MATH 117, 118 (available only at regional campuses and through correspondence); MATH 120 (early childhood, middle childhood, and intervention specialist education majors only); MATH 147, PHIL 120, PSY 120.
Placement Level 2 (PL2)
Placement at this level indicates preparation for Level 1 courses as well as these additional Tier I-fulfilling courses: MATH 115 (recommended only for students who plan to enroll in MATH 263A or 266A), MATH 150, 163A, 250, PSY 221.
Placement at this level demonstrates quantitative skill competence sufficient to fulfill the Tier I quantitative skills requirement. If your major requires that you enroll in a quantitative skills course, placement at Level 3 indicates preparation for MATH 263A (or MATH 266A for natural science majors) and any course in Levels 1 or 2.
Athens campus students may re-test during the first week of the quarter at 1:00 p.m. at the Academic Advancement Center . Direct questions to the placement testing coordinator, University College, (740) 593-1935. Regional campus students should contact their student services office.

In brief, students are required to take 30 hours of coursework with at least four hours from four of the following five areas: Applied Science and Technology, Cross-Cultural Perspectives, Humanities and Fine Arts , Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and Social Sciences. Students should consult with their advisors in planning their selections of Tier II courses. The identification and description of courses which fulfill the Tier II requirements are defined and coded in the Ohio University Undergraduate Catalog. All courses which meet the Tier II requirements are coded by the following designations: 2A, 2C, 2H, 2N, and 2S, which correspond to the five Tier II areas: Applied Science and Technology (2A), Cross-Cultural Perspectives (2C), Humanities and Fine Arts (2H), Natural Sciences and Mathematics (2N), and Social Sciences (2S). These codes can be found under the column entitled GE at the top of each page in the Schedule of Classes.
General Education - Tier III
Students, after attaining senior standing, are required to take one of the courses approved as meeting the Tier III criterion of interdisciplinary synthesis or an approved substitute course. All courses which meet the T ier III requirement bear the course designation "T3" and are listed together under the heading "Tier III"; they are also available via the Web, www.ohio.edu/univcollege/tieriii. Students who register for more than one Tier III course will be dropped from all but the final section for which they register.
Students may fulfill this requirement by taking a Tier III equivalent course in their major; they should s ee their major advisor for information as to whether their discipline offers such a course. A list of Tier III equivalent courses is available by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site, www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Tier III Equivalent Courses under Information.

It is the student's responsibility to maintain a current address on file with Ohio University. Students can easily update their address by accessing the Office of the University Registrar Web site , www.ohio.edu/registrar, and selecting Update MyAddress under Online Services.
It is very important to keep your local and permanent address and telephone number current in order for the University to communicate important information to you.
REPEATING A COURSE
A repeatable course is defined as a course taken for additional hours of credit toward graduation requirement s (i.e., MUS 340, PSY 490). Some departments place limits on the total number of credits that may be earned in repeatable courses.
RETAKING A COURSE
A regular undergraduate course with fixed content can be retaken to affect your accumulative grade point average. Undergraduate courses that are retaken to improve a grade will be automatically identified at the time you register. Retaking the course removes the hou rs and the effect of the earlier grade from the calculation of the grade point average. However, all grades are printed on the student's academic record (transcript). Please note that the later grade is the one calculated in the grade point average even if it is lower than the first and that the course credit hours duplicated by retaking coursework are not accepted toward the credit-hour requirement for graduation.
Graduate courses cannot be retaken to improve a low grade on th e first attempt. All grades received are calculated into the graduate grade point average.
As a rule, a course designated as a prerequisite may not be retaken to affect the grade point average after you have completed higher-level coursework in the same subject area. Also, courses taken at Ohio University and retaken at another University are not eligible for grade point adjustment under this policy. You should be aware that some departments place limits on the number of times a course may be retaken, so check with the student services office in your college regarding restrictions.
Please note that retaking a course after graduation will not change your graduation grade point average, honors status, or rank in class. Some graduate and professional schools include all grades in their calculations of grade point averages while determining eligibility for admission even though Ohio University calculates only the last grade in a retaken course.

SELECTIVE SERVICE REGISTRATION
Attention: Male students between the ages of 18 and 26.

Failure to register with selective service and provide verification of such will result, as the law stipulates, in the assessment of the out-of-state surcharge and the loss of student financial aid. The Office of the University Registrar will notify those who, according to the selective service office, have not complied with the law and ask for a statement from the student verifying his selective service status. For additional information about the Selectiv e Service System or for online registration, visit www.sss.gov.
