Grading and Enrollment Forms

Change of Program: Add/Drop Form

The Change of Program form should be submitted if a student wishes to make any change in their official schedule after regular registration. Program changes during regular registration can be done online at my.CSUDH.edu. Changes include dropping a class, adding a class, changing the number of units for a class in which the student is registered, and changing from one section to another of the same course. After the regular registration period, the student must submit the Change of Program form, which requires the student to obtain approval of the instructor, department chair, and dean’s signature before submitting to the Registrar’s Office.

Policy

A change of program is any change made in a student's official schedule. Changes include dropping a class, adding a class, changing the number of units for a class in which the student is registered, and changing from one section to another of the same course. Program changes during regular registration can be done online at my.CSUDH.edu.

Program Changes During Late Registration

Note: Deadlines dates for adding and dropping are listed each semester in the official University Academic Calendar which can be found in the class schedule.

Add

Weeks 1 through 3: Between the start of classes and the end of the add/drop period of each semester, a student may add online at my.CSUDH.edu or can file a Change of Program Form [PDF]. To add courses students must request a Late Registration Permission Number from the instructor. The Late Registration Permission Numbers can only be used one time, by one student, and for that specific course only.

Week 4: Students may add via a Change of Program Form [PDF] with signatures from the instructor, program chair, and dean.


Drop (Official Withdrawal from a Course)

Weeks 1 through 3: Between the start of classes and the end of the add/drop period of each semester, a student may withdraw online at my.CSUDH.edu or can file a Change of Program Form [PDF]. No instructor approval is required. No grade is assigned and the enrollment does not appear on the student's record. Exception: Department Chair approval is required in order to drop MAT 3, MAT 9, ENG 88, and ENG 99.

Week 4
  • Adding a Class: You can add with a Change of Program form signed by the Instructor, Program Chair of the department, and Dean of the college offering the class.
  • Dropping a Class: You can drop classes using the Change of Program form and it must be signed by the instructor OR your advisor at your Student Success Center. No grade is assigned, and the enrollment does not appear in the students record.

Weeks 5 through 11: A student may be eligible to withdraw from a course up to the end of week 11. They must submit a Petition for Exception Form [PDF], a Change of Program Form [PDF] and evidence of a serious and compelling reason. An administrative grade of "W" may be assigned. The Change of Program Form must include signatures from the instructor, department chair, and dean.

Starting in the Fall 2009 semester, students can now withdraw from only 18 units (typically 4-6 classes) during the course of their studies at CSUDH. After that, any courses not completed will result in a failing grade. This limit applies to course withdrawals during week 4 through 11. Any withdrawals taken before the Fall 2009 term do not count toward the 18-unit limit.

Weeks 12 through 15: Withdrawals are not be permitted during this period of instruction except in cases, such as accident or serious illness, where the cause of withdrawal is due to circumstances clearly beyond the student's control and the assignment of an Incomplete is not practical. Withdrawals during this time of the semester are only allowable for all classes. Permission to withdraw during this time must be granted only with the approval of the instructor, department chair, and dean. Documentation is required before the withdrawal is approved. A reason for withdrawal must be provided for all requests to withdraw during this period. Withdrawals that occur during this period will not count against the Undergraduate 18-unit withdrawal limit. 

Students must submit a Petition for Exception Form [PDF], a Change of Program Form [PDF], and evidence of a serious accident or illness. Medical verification is required. An administrative grade of "W" may be assigned. The Change of Program Form must include signatures from the instructor, department chair, and dean.

Approval for Audit

The Approval for Audit Form is designated for students who wish to audit a course. The student must obtain the approval of the instructor on the Approval for Audit form, approval may not be obtained prior to the first day of instruction. Auditing a course means a student can attend class meetings and have access to course materials, but they will not receive credit for the course. The symbol AU will appear on the student’s record for audited courses. Auditors must pay the same fees as would be charged if the courses were taken for credit.

Policy

A student not admitted to, nor enrolled in, the University must file a Statement of Residence prior to auditing a course. A residence determination must be made so that appropriate fees may be charged. Auditors must pay the same fees as would be charged if the courses were taken for credit.

A student who wishes to audit a course must obtain the approval of the instructor on the Approval for Audit Form [PDF], which is also available in the Office of Admissions & Records. The approval may not be obtained prior to the first day of instruction. Enrollment as an auditor is subject to the approval of the instructor.

A student registered as an auditor may be required to participate in any or all classroom activities at the discretion of the instructor. A student who is enrolled for credit may not change to audit after the end of the add/drop period. Credit for courses audited will not subsequently be granted on the basis of the audit. An audited course should be taken into consideration when planning a program so that the study load will not be excessive. The symbol "AU" will appear on the student's record for audited courses.

Change of Catalog Year

Students who have maintained continuous attendance (or have been recently approved for a Planned Educational Leave) may be able to change their catalog year based on the following criteria:

  • The default catalog year is the year of CSUDH admission.
  • If applicable, a student may claim the year they entered a California Community College or another CSU, if the student has remained in continuous attendance.
  • Students may claim the catalog year in effect at the time of graduation.

As noted in Title V of the California State Education Code, returning students who did not maintain continuous attendance (or had not been approved for a Planned Education Leave) will lose their prior catalog rights and will be subject to all requirements and regulations in the catalog of the year they are readmitted to the campus. 

*Continuous attendance means attendance in at least one semester or two quarters in each calendar year.

Change of Undergraduate Major/Minor

Undergraduate students who wish to declare a new major/minor or add a second major/minor will be able to do so by submitting a request directly from their myCSUDH student portal. Once a student submits their request, the information will be routed to the appropriate designated personnel to review, approve, and process the request. Prior to submitting a request, a student must meet with an advisor from their Student Success Center.

For additional information on how the process works, please review the following link with steps on how to submit a request.

Policy

A student may change his/her major or minor at any time before applying for graduation. If a student has not declared his/her major and is ready to do so, it is also considered a change of the major or minor. 

Credit/No Credit Grading Option

The Credit/No Credit Grading Option Form is used when a student wishes to change their course grading into a Credit or No Credit instead of traditional grading. Restrictions apply, refer to the form for more information about restrictions and university policy regarding Credit/No Credit grading option. Selection of the CR/NC grading option must be made during the first three weeks of instruction.

Policy

A student may elect to be graded on a "CR/NC" basis in a course that has another grade basis such as "A-F". A Credit/No Credit Grading Option Form [PDF] must be completed.

Limitations

No more than 24 units graded "CR/NC", whether taken at this or another institution, may be offered in satisfaction of the total units required for a bachelor's degree. If 24 units graded "CR/NC" are accepted in transfer, no additional courses graded "CR/NC" may be used to satisfy degree requirements, except when a required course is graded solely on a "CR/NC" basis. Any credits earned through College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests are exempt from the 24 credit maximum at the time of score reporting. However, should these credits place the student above 24 total "CR/NC" units, no additional credit/no credit units may be counted toward graduation.

Selection of the grading basis ("A-F" for "CR/NC") is made beginning the first week of classes through the end of the add/drop period. Courses used to satisfy a major or which are prerequisites to it, must be taken for a letter grade.

Graduate Level Students

"CR/NC" grades may be allowed in courses numbered below 500 which will not be used to satisfy the requirements of a graduate degree program.

For additional information regarding Credit/No Credit, please see the University Catalog.

Credit by Examination Petition

The Credit by Examination Petition Form must be submitted to the Registrar’s Office after completion of the form with appropriate signatures and payment of applicable fees.

Cross Enrollment

Undergraduate students enrolled in the CSU may enroll, without formal admission and without payment of additional State University Fees, in a maximum of one course per academic term at a campus of either of the other systems on a space-available basis at the discretion of the appropriate campus authorities on both campuses.

Planned Educational Leave Request – Graduate

A Planned Educational Leave is defined as a planned interruption or temporary cessation of a student's formal education in which the student voluntarily and temporarily ceases enrollment at CSUDH while pursuing other educationally related activities to enrich their academic program or to clarify educational goals. Restrictions apply, refer to the form for more information about restrictions and university policy regarding Planned Educational Leave.

Overview

It is a university requirement that graduate students maintain continuous attendance throughout the course of their study for the master's degree. Any graduate student in good academic standing may request a Planned Graduate Student Leave. Reasons for seeking a leave are likely to be varied, but all applicants should intend to return to formal study within a specified time period.

Eligibility

To apply for a Planned Graduate Student Leave, the student must be a conditionally classified or classified graduate student with a grade point average of 3.0 or better. Application for the leave must be filed with the appropriate graduate coordinator before the first day of classes for the semester during which the leave is to begin, and should be accompanied by appropriate documentation.

Duration of Leave

The minimum initial leave will be one full term; the maximum will be one calendar year. Under compelling circumstances, a student may request, in writing and in advance, an extension of the leave. The total number of approved Planned Graduate Student Leaves may not exceed two, and the duration of Planned Graduate Student Leaves may not total more than two calendar years.

Approval

The Planned Graduate Student Leave is approved at the discretion of the student's graduate coordinator. The graduate coordinator may require periodic reports from the student. Students who plan to enroll for credit at another institution of higher education during the leave period must obtain prior approval for the transfer of course credit to the program from the graduate coordinator.

Approval of the leave does not constitute an extension of the time period for completing all course work and other requirements for the graduate degree. Approval of the student's leave application constitutes agreement by the university that the student will be temporarily exempted from the continuous attendance requirement as long as the student meets the conditions specified in the approved leave application. Students who do not return to the university at the conclusion of their planned leave will be considered to have withdrawn from the university at the end of their last semester of regular enrollment at CSUDH.

Application Procedures

Download the Graduate Request for Planned Educational Leave Form [PDF] or obtain a paper copy from the Graduate Program Coordinator and the Office of Academic Programs. Upon completion of the form, submit it to the Registrar in The Registrar's Office.

Availability of Services

A student on Planned Graduate Student Leave shall be expected to devote his/her leave period to off-campus activities.

Resumption of Formal Education

A student shall be guaranteed re-entry and retention of registration priority if all conditions of the approved leave have been met at the conclusion of his/her Planned Graduate Student Leave.

Students who fail to resume studies at the prearranged time shall forfeit the advantages of the Planned Graduate Student Leave Program.

Student Record

Each student enrolled in the program will have an entry made on his/her permanent record indicating that the student is on leave. The dates of the beginning and conclusion of the leave also will be recorded. Students must obtain prior approval of The Registrar's Office to enroll for credit at another institution of higher education. Any credit earned will be treated as transfer credit to be evaluated and entered in student records in the customary manner.
