Enrolling in M.S.S.F. Courses
Any student who has been unconditionally admitted to the IU Southeast M.S.S.F. program can enroll in M.S.S.F. courses contingent upon successful completion of all prerequisites.
Students who have not been admitted to the M.S.S.F. program, on the other hand, must request permission from the Graduate Business Policies Committee in order to enroll. The Graduate Business Policies Committee will make a final and binding decision. These students must
- prove graduate student status, and
- complete 20 credit hours of foundation course work required for all M.S.S.F. students.
They are given the lowest priority ranking if class size is an issue.
Permission to enroll in an IU Southeast M.S.S.F. course does not constitute admission to the program. Students from other graduate programs must obtain permission from the Graduate Business Policies Committee to enroll in M.S.S.F. courses each registration period.
Auditing
Auditing is not permitted for courses in the M.S.S.F. curriculum.
Schedule Changes
M.S.S.F. students who have registered for classes and who have received a Schedule Confirmation/Account Statement may adjust their class schedules during the drop/add period at the beginning of each semester. This procedure is outlined on the IU Southeast Web site (www.ius.edu/registrar/).
Consult the Director of Graduate Business Programs to determine how course changes affect academic progress.
Withdrawal
Students are responsible for officially withdrawing from a course as outlined in this bulletin. Unofficial withdrawal results in an automatic grade of F. To change their class schedule, students must complete a Drop/Add form available in the Graduate Business Programs Office or the Office of the Registrar, where it will be dated and processed the same day. The Graduate Business Programs director assists students in revising their class schedule.
No grade is recorded on the transcript when students withdraw during the first week of classes. A grade of W (withdrawal) is recorded automatically when students officially withdraw before the end of the tenth week of a semester or the fourth week of a six-week summer session.
The 1.5 credit hour courses
- B511 Business Communications,
- B513 International Environmental Analysis,
- H542 Advanced Financial Accounting
are split into seven-week sessions during the fourteen-week fall and spring semesters and into three-week sessions during the summer sessions. In such cases, students must officially withdraw before the fourth week of the seven-week course and the first week of a summer course.
Refunds
Students who withdraw during the first four weeks of the fall and spring semesters, or the first two weeks of a summer session, may request a refund from the Office of the Registrar at the time of withdrawal. Refunds are dispensed within six weeks. Consult the fee schedule section of the IU Southeast Schedule of Classes for additional information.
