Self Paced Instruction

A number of courses are offered on a self-paced instruction basis. With permission of the instructor and the Dean, students may enroll in a self-paced course any time up to three weeks prior to the last day of classes during the semester. Please refer to the calendar in the class schedule for specific dates.

Registration for self-paced instruction courses alone does not involve a late registration fee, unless it is the student's initial registration for that particular semester. Students must finish the self-paced course within the given semester or re-register for the same course in a subsequent semester. At the end of each semester, a grade is assigned. If work for a self-paced course has not been completed but satisfactory progress is underway, the student usually is assigned a grade of Z. The student must re-register for the course the next time it is offered to earn a letter grade and credit in the course. The initial Z grade will remain on the record.
