How to Determine if your Class is Online

Instructional Method Information

You can determine if your class is taught online, on campus, or a mixture of both by looking at the instructional method code on the schedule of classes. Classes taught online may meet synchronously (set meeting date and time) or asynchronously (no set meeting date or time). Here is a list of the different types of instructional methods and the codes that go along with them.

Entirely at a Distance (Instructional method code E) – 100% online
The course must not require students to meet on-campus at all during the course of the semester. The student cannot be required to attend a proctored exam at one particular site; proctored exams must be allowed at any approved testing site worldwide. Sections with this designation will be marked with an "E" Section code (E01, E02, etc.) and may impact student's fees.

Fully at a Distance with One Meeting at the Carrollton campus, 博彩平台推荐 Newnan, or 博彩平台推荐 Douglasville – 95-99% online
Courses that are fully at a distance will have three different delivery scenarios, listed below, based on the campus students are required to attend. The course may require only one face-to-face meeting and perhaps a proctored exam using distance technologies for more than 95% of instruction time. Sections with this designation will be marked with an "N" in the Section Code and may impact student's fees.

1. Fully at a distance with one meeting at the Carrollton Campus (instructional method code FC)
2. Fully at a distance with one meeting at 博彩平台推荐 Newnan (instructional method code FN)
3. Fully at a distance with one meeting at 博彩平台推荐 Douglasville (instructional method code FD)

Partially at a Distance (instructional method code P) – 51-94% online
The course will meet through videoconferencing, online, or other technologies, instead of face-to-face, for 51-94% of its instructional time. These sections are marked with a "D" in the Section Code.

Hybrid - 1-50% online
Courses that are hybrid will have three different delivery scenarios, listed below.

1. Traditional Hybrid (instructional method code H) – Technology is used to deliver 50% or less of class sessions. All students enrolled will meet in the classroom on both days assigned to the course, but at least one class session will be replaced by technology.
2. Split Roster (instructional method code H1) – Technology is used to deliver 50% or less of class sessions, and student meet minimally one time per week in a face to face class setting. Segment of the class attend the classroom on a regularly schedule rotation based on classroom capacity with social distancing. Students will be notified of their attendance requirement by the instructor prior to the first day of class.
3. Once per Week (instructional method code H2) – Technology is used to deliver 50% or less of class sessions. Students will meet face to face on one of the course days and online either synchronously or asynchronously on the other day.

Technology Enhanced
Technology is used in delivering instruction, but no class sessions are replaced by technology.

eCampus
The University of West Georgia also offers eCore and eMajor classes. These classes are entirely online and may require a proctored exam.

At the start of each semester, students have the opportunity to drop or add classes during the Drop/Add period. After the drop/add period, there is a period of time in which students may withdraw from courses.

The following information outlines the differences between dropping and withdrawing, the process for each, and the timeline. For more information on how to drop or withdraw from a course, please review the section on this page titled, "Registration Guides - How do I Register?"

What is the difference between dropping and withdrawing?

A course can only be "dropped" during the official drop/add period at the beginning of each semester or part of term. The drop/add period is the window available to edit a schedule prior to becoming official. Dropped courses are removed from the student's class schedule and will not appear on transcripts.

After the initial drop/add period has passed, students must officially "withdraw" from a class by the withdrawal deadlines. (The withdrawal deadlines may be found on the Registrar's calendar in The Scoop.) Unlike dropped courses, withdrawn courses remain on your class schedule and will appear on your transcript with a letter grade of "W" or "WF" depending on the date the withdraw is processed.

Is there a refund associated with a drop or withdrawal?

If you drop a course during the drop/add period and you are entitled to a refund, please contact the Office of Student Accounts and Billing Services' in Aycock Hall at (678) 839-4737 to find out when your refund will be disbursed to your BankMobile Account.

If you withdraw from a course, there is no refund associated with the withdrawal. If you withdraw from all courses for the semester, you may be eligible for a refund. Refunds for a complete withdrawal (all courses) will be based on a pro rata percentage determined by dividing the number of calendar days in the semester that the student completed by the total number of calendar days in a semester. Students who withdraw after 60% of the semester has been completed are not entitled to a refund of charges. Contact the Office of Student Accounts and Billing Services' at (678) 839-4737 for more information regarding refunds for complete withdrawals. View our Complete Withdraw Form (PDF, 228KB) for the policy and types of complete withdrawals at 博彩平台推荐.

Financial Aid Recipients

Financial aid recipients should check with the Momentum Center or Financial Aid Office before withdrawing from a class(es). Withdrawing from a course could cause the loss of financial aid for future terms and/or repayment for the current term. In accordance with federal regulations, you may be required to repay a portion of federal or state financial aid received or credited to your account if you withdraw prior to the end of the semester. Financial aid recipients who decide not to attend may also be required to repay aid if they do not officially withdraw from the university.

Limited Course Withdrawal Policy

Undergraduate students may withdraw from courses with a grade of "W" (Withdraw Passing) a maximum of six times during their entire undergraduate enrollment at the University of West Georgia. Students must withdraw from courses during the Withdrawal "W" Period, as noted on the Registrar's Calendar in The Scoop. Retroactive withdrawals for prior terms are not permitted. The Withdrawal "W" Period typically begins after Drop/Add and closes at mid-term. Grades of "W" do not count toward the grade point average. For more information regarding the Limited Withdrawal Policy, steps to take prior to withdrawing, and exemptions to the policy, please review the Limited Course Withdrawals Webpage on the Registrar's Website.

Withdrawal from a course(s) after Drop/Add

Students who wish to withdraw from a course after drop/add may withdraw on Self-Service Banner or come to the Momentum Center. If you have a hold on your account, then you must come to the Momentum Center to withdraw.

There is no refund for withdrawing from a course on your schedule. Before the mid-point of a term, a withdrawal equals a grade of W and will not affect your GPA. After the mid-point and withdrawal deadline of a term, a withdrawal equals a grade of WF and will count the same as an F in your GPA.

Withdrawal from ALL courses after Drop/Add

If you decide to withdraw from all courses after the drop/add period is over, you must fill out a Complete Withdrawal Form (PDF, 228K) and take it to the Advising Center* to meet with an advisor. The advisor will review the form with the student, sign, date and forward the information to the Registrar's Office. The withdrawal date will be effective on the date of the student's initiation of the process. Distance (online) students should complete the form and then contact (phone, email) the Advising Center to speak with an advisor to complete the withdrawal process.

*Graduate students will take the form to their program director.
