Academic Policies

Program Changes—Change of Major

In order to change a major, a student must meet with his/her advisor, and complete a Student Record Change form available in the New Media Office, Mary Cable Building 117.

Addition of Courses

An undergraduate student may add a course after the class has begun only with the approval of the instructor and the student’s advisor.

Program Planning and Counseling

The New Media Program provides counseling services to assist students in planning their program of study. Students who have chosen a major are assigned an advisor and should make an appointment with that advisor prior to each registration period in order to discuss long-term goals as well as specific course work for the upcoming semester. Consulting with their advisor is a semester-by-semester obligation of students to ensure on-going progress toward a degree.

Students, however, not their advisors, are responsible for their programs. They should be thoroughly familiar with the general requirements for a new media degree. Students are urged to complete most of their general education requirements during the freshman and sophomore years.

In planning a program, students should refer to both the Schedule of Classes and this bulletin. Special attention should be paid to course description and prerequisites. This bulletin identifies prerequisites with a "P"; corequisites with a "C"; and recommended courses with an "R." Students should not enroll in courses for which they do not have the prerequisites. Instructors may require a student to drop a class if the student has not fulfilled the prerequisites.
