Abstract

The Registrar and Associate Registrar from ERAU Worldwide discuss the torturous process of evaluating student requests for exceptions to policy and procedure. Decision points around continuing student status, late adds, drops, and withdrawals, curricular substitutions, and graduation will be explored. Scenarios from their office were shared for discussion. Recommendations for best practices for policy writing from the AACRAO Guide to Graduation Ceremonies are included.
