The Special Request

of institutional responsibility. For example, cancellation of a
scheduled course or where there is documentary evidence that a
student has been misadvised. No student may take more than one Special
Request course during any semester or more than two in the duration
of any programme. An additional fee equivalent to the cost of one
credit is charged for Special Request courses.
A student’s
petition for a Special Request course must be directed to the
Department Chair who will liaison with the instructor involved.
Requests approved by both the Department Chair and the instructor
must be submitted to the Office of Academic Administration for final
approval. Arrangements for Special Request courses must be made
during the pre-registration period. A student on academic probation
may not register for a Special Request course.
Special Request
courses run concurrently with the normal semester schedule, and the
normal registration deadlines should apply. The credit hours for
Special Request courses will be computed in the student’s academic
load. Final examinations must be administered at the same time and
under the same condition as other examinations.

Students records
are retained for their entire tenure at this institution. The
certified documents submitted for application become the property of
