If a student sits in a class for which he or she is not registered, the student will not receive credit for that class and will have to re-take the class to earn credit. If a student wishes to protest this, he or she can write a letter of appeal, with supporting documentation, to the registrar. Copies should be sent to the instructor and to the dean or chair of the respective college. The registrar will confer with the instructor of record and submit the student's appeal letter, along with any additional information gathered from the instructor, to the Provost for a decision. If the student is allowed to back-register for the course, the student will be required to pay for the entire course in full before he or she can receive his or her grades, official transcript, or diploma.
