Undergraduate, Certificate and Graduate Programs



Auditing Class
You may audit a course for no credit.  Regular attendance at classes is expected, but auditors are not required to complete written course assignments or take the final assessments for the course.  Tuition is 50% discount per credit for auditing a course. Some restrictions apply. For specific information and registration procedures, contact Registrar’s Office to audit a course.

Classroom Assignments
Refer to Interactive Online (IOL) for your class schedule.  Also check the course offerings posted throughout the College or online when classes begin since room changes may occur after registration statements have been mailed.

Class/Course Cancellation
Instructor

If an instructor is ill and a class is cancelled, a notice will be placed on classroom door and on glass bulletin board in the Commons Lobby.

Registrar
A course for which you have registered may be dropped from the official semester’s course offering due to insufficient enrollment. If this should occur, the Registrar’s Office will notify you prior to the beginning of the semester so you may revise your registration. An information memo is posted in the glass enclosed bulletin board outside the Registrar’s Office, LA 204.

Weather

The Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and the Senior Vice President for Finance and Management Services may elect to close the college due to severe weather conditions.  Listen to the radio or TV for an announcement if classes are cancelled.

If you live outside the Milwaukee area, contact a friend in the area for the information.  If weather conditions are poor and classes are held, we ask you to exercise discretion regarding your safety in traveling to campus.  Students not in class can make arrangements regarding homework with their instructors.
