PROCEDURES

When a student elects to return to the College to complete a program of study, he/she must:

  1. Meet with the Program Coordinator to determine an appropriate course plan.

  2. For courses that have evolved to the extent that the credit previously earned by the student is no longer comparable to the credit currently being offered, Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) and challenge exams are available to the student. Otherwise, the student must repeat the course.

PLAR Resource Guide

  1. Students who have interrupted their studies will not be eligible to graduate from a program that is no longer offered by the College unless alternate arrangements have been approved in writing by the program Dean, in cooperation with the Registrar.

Note: In instances where a student takes a reduced course load, the student’s program of study remains under the program synopsis in force when he/she registered.
