A student who intends to drop a subject shall first notify the teacher concerned. Then the student's adviser shall recommend approval of the dropping of the subject to the School Dean who shall endorse the form to the office of the Registrar.
A student who withdraws a subject with the approval of the School Dean shall be marked "Withdrawn"while a student who fails to withdraw officially, shall be marked "DROPPED".
A student who drops the subject after the midterm has been given is considered as having failed the subject and is therefore given of "5.0".
Transfer of subject to other class or section shall be made only upon the consent of the concerned instructors.
A Student is dropped from his class if:
- he has incurred unexcused absences equivalent to 20% of the total number of hours per semester.
- He has presented a notice of dropping the subject due to reasons of illness.
- Transfer of residence elsewhere or abroad or any justifiable reason.
If a student fails to present his official notice of dropping without any meritorious reason like sickness and transfer of resident after the midterm period, the faculty member shall automatically give the student a grade of 5.0
Official dropping of a subject before the midterm does not require the payment of balance of his tuition and other school fees.
After the midterm the student may be allowed to drop officially but he should be required to pay the balance of his school fees.
