Questions regarding adjustments to Pass/No Pass regulations for the Spring 2020 term can be found here.

Spring Registration

• Are all Spring classes going remote?
• With the exception of limited classes involving lab work, studio instruction, or clinical experience, all classes will be delivered remotely. Please contact your instructor for more information on these courses.
• Can students take courses that overlap in time, since instruction is remote?
• Possibly. If you would like to enroll in a class that is being held asynchronously, contact the instructor of your other class to ask if they will approve an enrollment override. Check with both faculty to ensure you will not have a final exam conflict; unless faculty have made adjustments, final exams will still be held at the time published in the Schedule of Classes. Once you have received approval for the override, forward it to your academic advisor to enroll via WebReg.
