Policies and Procedures for the SPCS
The academic policies, procedures, and regulations outlined here have been developed as a protection for students who should become familiar with them. The regulations cover such matters as dropping a course, receiving an incomplete grade for a course, and following proper registration procedures. Negligence by a student in following the established regulations could result in receiving a failing grade in a course.
The policies, procedures, and regulations refer to all programs and courses offered by the School of Professional and Continuing Studies, including those offered on the Jersey City and Englewood Cliffs campuses and all off campus sites. Any questions concerning the interpretation of academic policies, procedures, and regulations should be addressed in writing to the academic dean.
