Important Information and Things to Do regarding your Class Standing<\/h2>\n

FRESHMAN (0-29 hours)<\/h3>\n

When becoming a student in the college you will meet with the staff of SCoPES to declare a major, if you have not already done so.\u00a0 You will be assigned an Academic Advisor at that time.\u00a0 During both semesters of your freshman year, you will be required to meet with your Academic Advisor prior to registration.<\/p>\n

SOPHOMORES (30-59 hours)<\/h3>\n

As a sophomore, you are required to meet with an Academic Advisor in order to register for classes.\u00a0 Near the end of your sophomore year, you should develop a plan for completing your major courses.\u00a0 By the end of your sophomore year, you should have completed EDF 218\/270 and passed all three parts of the Praxis CORE I exam.\u00a0 \u00a0It is important that you plan carefully in order to properly navigate through the College of Education and Professional Development to graduate in a timely manner.<\/p>\n

JUNIORS (60-89 hours)<\/h3>\n

Once you complete 58 hours of coursework and officially become a junior, you will meet with the Director of SCoPES to complete a Junior Degree Evaluation.\u00a0 This evaluation outlines all of your remaining requirements for graduation.\u00a0 A hold will be placed on your account until this junior degree evaluation takes place.\u00a0 This hold prevents students from registering for classes or adjusting your schedule.<\/p>\n

SENIORS (90+ hours)<\/h3>\n

Once you reach 90 credit hours and officially become a senior you will meet with the Director of SCoPES to complete a Senior Degree Evaluation.\u00a0 The semester before <\/strong>you graduate is the time to apply for graduation.\u00a0 Your diploma fee must<\/strong> be paid in the Bursars office in Old Main prior to applying.\u00a0 After paying, come to the Office of Student Services in the College of Education and Professional Development and fill out a graduation application.<\/p>\n

Overload Request<\/h2>\n

If a class offered by the College of Education and Professional Development (COEPD) is closed, students may request an overload into the course.\u00a0 The overload process for all COEPD courses is maintained in the SCOPES Office. Please see Dr. Kandice Rowe in EB 201D to submit an overload request. \u00a0Courses offered by the COEPD include courses with the following course designators: CI, CISP, EDF, and WELL. All requests are sent to the Director of the SCOPES who evaluates them in conjunction with the Chair.\u00a0 Priority for overloads is given to students majoring in the COEPD and students who need the course as a requirement to graduate in that semester or stay on track for their intended graduation date.\u00a0 Overloads are not guaranteed and depend on classroom capacity, course demand, and the student\u2019s curriculum requirements.\u00a0 For courses that are offered on the Huntington campus, overloads are not given until all of the sections of that course are closed.\u00a0 The Director of Student Services may maintain a waitlist for the course, but students are encouraged to register for an alternative course option if an overload cannot be granted.<\/p>\n
