Missed deadline to go below 12 credits in last semester? There's a petition for that

Did you mean to request permission to go below 12 credits in your final semester by the Oct 7 drop deadline and/or did something prevent you from making this request in time?

You can still make this request up to the W deadline, but you must now do it via petition.  Meet with your class dean to discuss, but in broad strokes you will need to:

1. Download your current unofficial transcript & degree audit from Student Planning.

2. Go to Slate to find the form to petition the Committee on Programs and Academic Standing for an exception to policy

3.  Select "Other" from the drop-down menu for petition type

4. Under "Describe your petition/special case:" explain that you are requesting late permission for below 12 credits in your final semester, being sure to specify: 

• how many credits you have completed, 
• how many semesters you have completed, 
• if you are a transfer student or if you entered as a first year, 
• how many credits you are currently taking, 
• what course(s) you would like the registrar to withdraw you from if approved
• how many credits you will have if approved --> minimum of 9 credits
• NOTE: you must submit an additional petition to if you would like this to be considered as a late-drop request. Please mention in both petitions that you are doing this

5.  Under "Explain the justification for your petition:" share everything you think is relevant about what prevented you from making this request on time, why you are making it now, why you believe it should be approved, etc. If you have more than 200 words to say about this, you may write "please see attached" and attach a screenshot

6. Be sure to upload BOTH an unofficial transcript AND all pages of your degree audit so that your request can be evaluated.
