College Reading & Research Course Form

Late Registration Change Petition

Request for Simultaneous Enrollment Form
Students who wish to petition to enroll in courses with a time conflict may submit a petition via the online Simultaneous Enrollment Form. Petitions are accepted at the start of each quarter's add/drop period until the end of Friday of third week of each quarter (the end of the add/drop period).
Students who wish to take a fifth course in a given quarter, pushing them over 400 units of credit, must notify their adviser and formally petition the Dean of Students in the College for permission to do so. Students in their first year of study may not register for more than 400 units. Students on academic probation and transfer students in their first quarter ordinarily may not register for more than 400 units. Petitions are accepted for the current quarter only. Petitions are accepted at the start of each quarter's add/drop period until the end of Friday of third week of each quarter (the end of the add/drop period).
This form is for students who wish to request a grade of Incomplete in a course. Students are eligible to request an Incomplete if they have 1. participated actively in the course, 2. completed the majority of the requirements with work that is of a passing quality, and 3. made satisfactory arrangements with the instructor to complete the remaining work. For more information, visit the Incompletes page.
Additional Quarter of Enrollment Petition
This petition is for students who wish to enroll beyond the ordinary twelve quarters of enrollment. Students should consult the College Registration Policies in addition to their College Adviser. Note: No student may enroll in more than thirteen quarters.
In advance of your leave of absence appointment, you may fill out this form to bring with you. Learn more about our Leaves of Absence policies on the Taking Time Away webpage.
Students who have been withdrawn from the College or who have been on leave of absence for more than 8 quarters, except as otherwise provided for in this policy (see Leaves of Absence) are required to submit a completed Petition to Resume Studies along with supporting materials eight weeks prior to the start of the quarter of intended return. The petition will be reviewed by the Committee on the Resumption of Studies, which will exercise reasoned judgment in deciding whether the resumption of studies is appropriate. The results of the review will be timely communicated in writing to the student upon completion of the review. The College is not obliged to approve student resumption petitions. The decision of the Committee on the Resumption of Studies is final and unreviewable.
In cases where a student’s leave involves medical conditions, the resumption of studies is contingent upon the condition being resolved or managed successfully. In order to protect the student’s privacy, the Dean of Students (or designee) will consider germane medical and other information available, including information provided in a timely manner by the student, before the petition is forwarded to the Academic Standing Committee. See the Resuming Studies webpage for more information. Upon return, students are expected to complete the requirements for the degree without further interruption.
