Withdrawal A student who officially withdraws from college during a semester will receive a grade of "WP" in all courses in which the work is of passing grade at the time of withdrawal; otherwise, a grade of "WF" will be given. A student who with­ draws may be granted honorable dismissal provided that he has met all his financial obligations to the college, has secured from the Registrar's Office and completed all forms for withdrawal, and is in good standing at the time. A student who withdraws ·unofficially, that is, has not completed the proper forms supplied by the Registrar's Office, will not receive a refund of any portion of his tuition or fees, and will receive a grade of "UW" in each course. If he has no financial obligations to the college, a transcript of his work will be sent to an- other school upon request. · Classification of Students A student's classification is determined at the beginning of the fall semester according to the following plan :

Freshman Sophomore

26 units or less

27-56 units 57-95 units

Junior Senior

96 units or more

Senior Standing A student may be admitted as a senior to candidacy for a degree only if his accumu­ lative average is above a "C" for all work done at Biola College and all general education and lower division requirements have been completed. Transfer No student will be permitted to transfer more than 70 units of credit from a junior college. No upper division credit can be allowed for courses taken in a junior college. Attendance Regular class attendance is expected of all students. Classes are conducted in a manner that will encourage academic excellence and the growth of Christian char­ acter. Because of the tremendous variety of class size and purpose, specific require­ ments in attendance, the final authority for attendance, and any effect that it might have upon grades rest with the individual faculty member. The specific rules for each class are to be made clear at the first session. Pre-Registration Pre-registration for the fall semester is held each year during the month of May. All students are required to pre-register if they plan to return to school in the fall semester. A $50.00 deposit is payable prior to pre-registration unless the student has the tuition deposit he paid at entrance held as a reserve on his account. This deposit is not refundable but will be retained to the student's ac­ count for one year from the intended date of registration. 29
