PROPOSED REVISION TO: REG 02.65.4 Registration Cancellation

Rationale: In response to Chancellor Woodson’s PRR review initiative, we are requesting this

regulation be converted to a rule. The current regulation documents the circumstances that warrant

cancellation of a student’s schedule. As such it is more in keeping with the PRR definition of a rule

than a regulation.

Consultation Process:

4/26/11 Vice Provost of Enrollment Management Services authorizes transmittal of PRR for review

4/27/11 General Counsel preliminary review

5/2/11 Provost review

7/7/11 General Counsel final review, if changes have been made

8/23/11 EOM, or official with delegated authority to review PRR

1. Under certain circumstances a student's name is removed from class rolls by a cancellation of registration. The following six types of situations warrant registration cancellation:

1.1. when the University has been unable to follow through on its commitment to the student, as (a) when a course is canceled because of insufficient enrollment or (b) when a graduate student's thesis adviser becomes unavailable because of unanticipated absence from the campus;

1.2. when the student is found to be ineligible to be in classes after having registered, as (a) when a student whose hearing on a violation of the Student Code of Conduct was not held before registration is subsequently suspended or (b) when a student's eligibility to continue in a sponsored study program has not been determined at the time registration must be completed and subsequently is found to be ineligible;

1.3. when a student notifies the University prior to the beginning of the first day of classes of intention not to attend;

1.4. when a student fails to satisfy financial obligations to the University and the Student Accounts Office, after adequate notification to the student, requests that the registration be canceled; and

1.5. when a student fails to matriculate into a degree program from a non-degree program, e.g., PMU and UUC, within the specified hour limitation;

1.6. when a student who is subject to review at 160 hours attempted plus transferred hours is not authorized by a college dean to continue registration in a subsequent semester.
