Course Registration
Academic Load
A student taking 12 or more quarter hours toward a degree is classified as a full-time student for that term. Students may register for no more than 23 credits per quarter. Students who meet specific academic criteria may apply for an exemption to the credit limit. See the Student Handbook for details.
Add/Drop Period
The add/drop period is defined as the first three class days of the first sprint of the quarter. Students may add or drop courses for either sprint during the add/drop period. Late fees may apply (see Financial Information section for details). Students who do not have an academic event during the add/drop period may be removed from the course or courses in question.
Course Adjustment Period
The course adjustment period is the first three school days of the second sprint of the quarter. Students may add or drop courses for the second sprint during the course adjustment period; the course adjustment period does not apply to quarter-length courses. Late fees may apply (see Financial Information section for details).
Students who have a course that begins in sprint 2 must have an academic event during the course adjustment period or they may be removed from the course or courses in question.
Course Auditing
Bachelor's degree students have the option to audit Neumont courses. Audited courses do not impact a student’s pace or grade point average. They are an opportunity for students to attend class sessions for a course but not participate in any assignments, assessments, or group work.
Current students may audit Neumont courses under the following conditions: 1) have a cumulative grade point average (cGPA) of 3.50 or higher, 2) have previously passed the course, or the course is not required for graduation. Authorization to audit requires the permission from the Vice President of Academic Operations and daily permission from the instructor. The audit option is dependent on that course’s maximum allowable enrollment. Students taking the course for credit have priority over audit students for instructor time and response to individual questions.
Permission to audit a course is requested through the registrar, prior to the end of the add-drop (sprint 1) or course adjustment (sprint 2) periods. There is a $100 per course per quarter audit fee.
Alumni Course Auditing
Neumont graduates who are in good standing with the institution may audit Neumont courses within the degree program from which they graduated. Auditing courses requires registrar approval, authorization from the Vice President of Academic Operations, and permission from the instructor. Students taking the course for credit have priority over audit students for instructor time and response to individual questions.
