SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENT (DROP/ADD). During the summer, students may add courses through the third day of each of the two short sessions and the fifth day of the full term. After these deadlines, they must have the approval of the instructor in the class and an academic dean. See the academic calendar in this class schedule booklet for the last possible day to register or to add classes. Any deviation from this policy is made only under extraordinary circumstances approved by the dean of the school or college in which the student is enrolled.
DATES FOR SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENT (drop/add) are listed in the academic calendar in this schedule.
THERE IS A CHARGE for schedule adjustments after the last official day to add classes or to register. Beginning on that date, each transaction (each drop and each add) will incur a charge of $5, which will be added to the student’s account with the bursar (student billing and receivables). See the calendar for these dates.
IF YOU DID NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE of priority registration, you may register through the Web registration system on the dates specified in the academic calendar in this class schedule booklet.

SPECIAL NOTE: If you enrolled in an ONLINE course, it is your responsibility to check your Ole Miss e-mail account for information about accessing your ONLINE class. For more information go to www.outreach.olemiss.edu/OleMissOnline/.
Any student having three or more examinations scheduled for the same day will arrange with the instructor to take the noon examination on some other mutually satisfactory date. Please note that only the noon examination may be rescheduled for this reason.
Examinations should be concluded in three hours.
No other examinations are to be given at other than scheduled hours, either for an individual or for a class, unless the instructor concerned has specific approval from the academic dean.
Those who park vehicles on the University of Mississippi campus are familiar with the problems. The demand for space is high, but the supply is low. The good news is that during the summer, on-campus parking is more available than during the fall and spring semesters. We would suggest that you investigate the possibilities by coming by the University Police Department, located in Kinard Hall on campus, or by calling (662) 915-7235. A complete copy of the University’s parking rules and regulations can be found at www.olemiss.edu/depts/u_police/Traffic/trafficrules.htm, on the back of the parking map, or in the M Book.
The Parking Traffic Services Office is responsible for maintaining the integrity of the campus by providing an equitable and quality service within the scope of available resources. The University has an obligation to provide a safe environment, fostering a high quality of life on campus.
Disabled Parking. Disabled parking spaces are provided throughout the campus. Only persons with valid state-issued disabled placards or embossed disabled license plates are able to park in these parking spaces. Any person who works or attends school at the University of Mississippi also must receive a disabled hang tag from the Parking Traffic Services Office.
Bicycling. Bicycling around our beautiful campus is highly suggested. Those who decide to ride their bikes also must adhere to the rules of the road. Please refer to the parking rules and regulations printed on the map for more information.
Skateboarding. Persons using such equipment must exercise extreme care to observe the rights of others. Neither skates nor skateboards are ever allowed in buildings. Please do not skate across any areas with brick foundation (for example, in front of the J.D. Williams Library) or on handrails.
Walking. We encourage you to choose this healthy alternative. Take advantage of Oxford’s beautiful weather, and walk! Always carry water during the summer months. We also recommend that you always walk with a friend.
Responsibility. Summer students must follow the rules and regulations set forth by the Traffic Safety Committee. Any citations received during your stay at the University of Mississippi must be paid before transcripts can be released. Be sure to receive a copy of the parking map when you apply for your parking permit. The permit application must be accompanied by proof of identification before any permit can be issued.

Special rules apply when students withdraw after receiving student financial aid (SFA) for the term from any of the following programs:
These rules are federally mandated. Before the University of Mississippi can calculate any tuition/fee refunds to a student under the institutional refund policy (see the academic calendar in this publication for this policy, which is administered by the Bursar’s Office), the Office of Financial Aid must determine whether any financial aid funds should be paid back.
The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 define “withdrawal”
as failure to complete the period of attendance on which federal aid eligibility
was based. Therefore, this policy affects not only those individuals who
complete the formal withdrawal notification process (as specified by the
registrar), but also those students who simply stop attending classes.
In either case, when a recipient of Title IV funds ceases attendance during
a term, the University must calculate how much SFA was earned
by the student.
A percentage is determined by the following formula:
Number of calendar days completed in the term as of
the date of withdrawal
Total number of calendar days in the term
If this percentage is more than 60 percent, no paybacks will be processed. If the result is 60 percent or less, then this percentage is used to determine how much of the aid that was disbursed (or could have been disbursed) is considered “earned.” The remainder must be returned to the Title IV program(s). Return of funds is processed as outlined below.
The University must return the lesser of (1) the amount of SFA not earned or (2) the institutional costs (tuition, housing, etc.) that the student incurred multiplied by the percentage of SFA not earned.
The student (or parent, in the case of a PLUS loan) must repay the amount of unearned SFA remaining after the University has returned its share.
Unearned funds are first applied (paid back) to any Title IV loans borrowed during the term. As stipulated by federal regulations, funds are returned in the following order:
When the school must return loan funds to the lender on the student’s behalf (or parent’s, in the case of a PLUS loan), the student’s bursar account will be charged for this amount. When the federal calculation determines, instead, that it is the student’s (or parent’s) responsibility to return funds directly to the lender, the earned Title IV loan funds are repaid in accordance with the terms of the loan.
If unearned funds remain after all loans have been repaid, the remaining unearned funds must be credited to Title IV programs in the following order:
When the school must return grant funds on the student’s behalf, the student’s bursar account will be charged for this amount. When the responsibility for repaying funds to the Title IV grant programs falls to the student, the student is required to return only 50 percent of the grant repayment as calculated using the federal formula. Grant overpayments may be collected according to arrangements satisfactory to the school, or by overpayment collection procedures prescribed by the Department of Education.
For withdrawals during the University’s refund period (during which tuition/fee refunds may apply), institutional aid that has credited to the student account must be repaid in full. Please refer to the “Academic Calendar” for the appropriate dates.
A student who withdraws from the University during the course of a semester or summer term must provide written notification either via fax, mail, or in person to the Office of the Registrar. Detailed information about the withdrawal process is provided in the Undergraduate Catalog. In the case of an unofficial withdrawal, the school will determine the appropriate date of withdrawal to be that of the midpoint of the term, unless the student can document a different date.
Refund, repayment, and withdrawal policies are subject to change, without notice, in order to comply with administrative and regulatory requirements.
The University complies with all applicable laws regarding affirmative action and equal opportunity in all its activities and programs and does not discriminate against anyone protected by law because of age, color, disability, national origin, race, religion, sex, or status as a veteran or disabled veteran. 1790-A/3-0
