New Student Information

For purposes of academic advising, every entering student is required to complete a Student Information Form. This information will be used only by your Academic Advisor and/or your Association Dean. All information is entered on a secure web site. Please be sure that all information entered is accurate.

Before you begin, gather your SAT, SAT II, AP, and IB test scores, as you will need to enter these scores on the form. You will also be asked to write two 100-word paragraphs about (1) your academic interests and goals and (2) your academic strengths and weaknesses. Provide any additional information you feel may be of value to your advisor. You may want to prepare the answers ahead of time so that your form does not time out. Completing the form will take approximately 15 minutes.

The forms are on a secure site; make sure your browser's security settings can support 128 bit encryption for secure transactions (Netscape 4.6 and above and Internet Explorer 4.0 and above should be ok; click here to check your browser). If your browser cannot handle secure connections, you will not be able to complete the form.

If you have problems accessing the site or submitting the form please write to .

Admissions and Enrollment

Course Action Form

Occasionally, ISIS will deny enrollment in a particular course because the maximum enrollment for the course has been met; because adding the course will result in your being outside the minimum or maximum number of credits allowed for students; or enrollment requires the instructor's permission. If so, you will need to complete a Course Action Form. This form will override any course restriction.

Students should submit the course action form to the department offering the course. Some departments do not process their own forms; in this case, submit forms to Garrett Hall. Requests for late adds or drops should be made via the Late Schedule Correction Form available at Garrett Hall. Penalties are imposed for the neglect of well-publicized enrollment deadlines. Requests to exceed the maximum or drop below the minimum must be submitted with an explanatory petition to your association dean.

More Information

 

Course Action Form for Enrollment in Courses Number > 600

The College, with very few exceptions, adheres to the University’s course numbering system, which means undergraduates are not to enroll in courses numbered higher than 599 (RECORD, p. 71). To request an exception students are to circulate this form, obtaining the specific information as indicated, and to complete the special Course Action Form below. Return this form to the receptionists in Garrett Hall. Any other enrollments in courses numbered >599 will be cancelled.

 

Interdisciplinary Major Program Application

To apply for the Interdisciplinary Major Program you must submit, along with this application, a written proposal outlining your project, a list of courses related to your field with a total of 30 credit hours, and a current transcript to Dean William Wilson in Garrett Hall. Upon receiving an offer of admission to the program, you must submit a formal declaration of major form to be signed by Dean Wilson.

 

Readmission Application

To apply for readmission to the College, submit this form. Virginia residents must also submit an PDF document icon Application for Virginia In-State Educational Privileges (.pdf, 154KB).

Change or Deletion of Major or Minor

To change or delete a major or minor, submit this form to Garrett Hall. With this form you may drop a second major, indicate which of two majors is first, and drop a minor.

Extensions and Leave

Request for Examination Postponement

When serious conditions exist, students, with the consent of the course instructor, may be allowed to postpone a final exam until later in final exam week. Early exams are not permitted. To request an exam postponement, a student must submit a "Request for Examination Postponement" form, with the instructor's recommendation, to the Office of the Dean in Garrett Hall. Your Dean will review your request and will notify you and your instructor only if your request is denied.

 

Request for Extension of Time to Complete Course Requirements

To request an extension of time to complete course requirements, a student must submit a "Request for Extension of Time" form, with the instructor's signature, to the Office of the Dean in Garrett Hall.

 

Leave of Absence

When you take a leave of absence from the University for a semester or more you must fill out and submit the PDF document icon "Application for Leave of Absence" Form (.pdf, 165KB) before the last day of Final Registration.

There are two leave options to choose from on this form: LDN (Leave, Domestic, No Credit) or LDC (Leave, Domestic Credit).

If you do not select one of these options, the Registrar classifies you as FRT (Failed to Return), your readmission is not automatic, and your declared major is canceled. To be readmitted you must be accepted as a major by a department and file a new declaration of major form. You must also fill out an application for readmission.

By paying the leave of absence fee of $143.50 per semester and electing the LDC or LDN option, you will receive an e-mail informing you of your access code and date to register for the following semester.
