Student Code of Conduct

Students accepted into the Business Professional Program agree to abide by the FCB Code of Conduct. Read the code HERE.

Early Course Enrollment

Early course enrollment occurs each semester during which you have the opportunity to register for the following term. You cannot register if you have an advising hold, measles hold and/or financial hold on your record (e.g., parking tickets). If you have any of these holds, please take care of them prior to your early enrollment appointment time. Information on Early Course Enrollment can be found HERE.

Adding/dropping a course

You are allowed to add a class up until the "Last day to Add a class" deadline which is usually the 9th day of the semester. However, the FCB does not allow classes to be added after the first week of instruction due to the amount of content that faculty believes is missed. Therefore, it is recommended that you enroll and finalize your class schedule early. If you need to add a class after this deadline, you will be required to fill out a "Petition to Add a Class after the Deadline" and pay a fee in order to have the class added to your schedule.

If you need to drop a class, please be aware of the deadlines to drop a class as there are three deadlines that are applicable. Information on each of these deadlines can be found HERE.

Please note: The FCB does not approve petitions for dropping classes after the deadlines unless it is an extenuating circumstance with proper documentation. If you need to drop a course, it is recommended that you meet with an OAS advisor prior to removing it from your schedule. We will inform you of how the action will affect your degree progress.

All deadlines can be found here on the Enrollment Calendar HERE.

Petitions and documentation requirements can be found HERE.
