The Selective Withdrawal Period for undergraduates began on Sept. 27 and goes through October 24. Undergraduate Degree-Seeking students may request a maximum of three selective withdrawals during their entire undergraduate career. Use selective withdrawal to drop a course you no longer want to/can be in. Just remember, if you use SE you will have a 'W' for withdrawal on your transcript.
Please ask Don or I if you have questions.

General Education classes
Dear Students,
Please be advised that AVT students have never been allowed to use any AVT courses to count for the Fine Arts general education requirements. Your degree audit may have once put AVT 104, 222, 215 into your Fine Arts requirement but this was a MISTAKE. This issue has been resolved by the Registrar's office and should not happen from here on out. Even though the audit used to continually make this mistake, messages about this policy have always been in the degree audits, advising sheets, and university catalogs.
Furthermore, students may not double count ARTH 203 for Global Understanding and their 200-level ARTH requirement. This was another mistake made by the audits, but is clearly stated in advising sheets, degree audits, and catalogs.
As I mentioned before, the degree audit mistakes should all be fixed now. The degree audits are great tools and I will be holding a workshop on 10/8 on how to use them. Please, please come in for advising. Don and I am here to help you and catch any of these technical errors.
