5 Reasons You Can Drop a Course: The course isn't required for your degree, isn't relevant to your degree, or isn't an acceptable elective. You're too far behind in the syllabus and you can't fathom catching up. You bombed your first midterm and can't reasonably recover your grade. (Abort mission.
“A drop from the course is usually done early in the semester and has no impact on the student's grade, GPA or transcript,” Croskey says. However, students should be very aware of deadlines, financial aid requirements and course timelines before dropping a class.
Under this statute, a teacher could be charged with a crime for engaging in sexual misconduct with a student. PC 288 says that it is a crime for a person to engage in “lewd acts” with a child under the age of 16. The section defines a “lewd act” as either: touching a child for sexual purposes, or.

Based on this section, district policy may permit the student to repeat the course to alleviate a substandard grade no more than two times. Thus, if the student repeats the course for the first time and receives another substandard grade, district policy may permit the student to repeat the course once more in order to alleviate substandard work. A student is permitted two attempts to alleviate a substandard grade. See examples A.1 through A.2 in the “Repetition and Withdrawal Examples” document.
As prescribed by title 5 section 58003.1(f)(2), noncredit DE courses continue to have only one attendance accounting procedure available to them. The noncredit DE procedure requires two census points (one-fifth and three-fifths point in the length of each course) in which student contact hours and active enrollment are determined. The average of the contact hours generated at these two points are divided by 525 to compute FTES. Detailed guidance applicable to this procedure is provided in the Student Attendance Accounting Manual (Chapter 3).
This section provides additional detail concerning the attendance accounting procedure to be used for noncredit courses. It is amended to conform with changes made to section 58003.1. All other provisions of the section remain unchanged.
Section 55253 permits students to earn the full number of units of cooperative work experience education allowed. If a college offers only one course in occupational work experience that is not offered as a variable unit open-entry/open-exit course, the district policy may permit the student to repeat the course any number of times so long as the student hasn’t exceeded the unit limitation. This change allows a student to repeat, for example, a one-unit occupational work experience course until the student has completed 16 semester units in that course.
A certificate of completion, confirming that a student has completed a program or sequence of courses that prepares him/her to progress in a career path or to undertake degree-applicable or non degree-applicable credit courses, should lead to improved employability or job opportunities. A certificate of competency, confirming that a student has demonstrated a set of competencies that prepares him/her to progress in a career path or to undertake degree-applicable or nondegree applicable credit courses, should be in a recognized career field articulated with degree-applicable coursework, completion of an associate degree, or transfer to a baccalaureate institution. The noncredit coursework that leads to a noncredit certificate of competency or a noncredit certificate of completion may be completed prior to or taken concurrently with degree-applicable or transferable coursework.
(a) For the satisfactory completion of all types of Cooperative Work Experience Education, students may earn up to a total of 16 semester credit hours or 24 quarter credit hours, subject to the following limitations:
Section 55041 focuses on courses which are, by their nature, repeatable without respect to circumstances of a particular student. Repeatable courses include legally mandated training courses, activity courses and courses in which the content changes each time the course is offered.

If the proposed site is within 1,500 feet of a railroad track easement, a safety study shall be done by a competent professional trained in assessing cargo manifests, frequency, speed, and schedule of railroad traffic, grade, curves, type and condition of track need for sound or safety barriers, need for pedestrian and vehicle safeguards at railroad crossings, presence of high pressure gas lines near the tracks that could rupture in the event of a derailment, preparation of an evacuation plan. In addition to the analysis, possible and reasonable mitigation measures must be identified.
Master-planned to provide for maximum site enrollment.
The site shall be easily accessible from arterial roads and shall allow minimum peripheral visibility from the planned driveways in accordance with the Sight Distance Standards established in the " Highway Design Manual ," Table 201.1, published by the Department of Transportation, July 1, 1990 edition, and incorporated into this section by reference, in toto.
Sufficient acreage is available but it would not be economically feasible to mitigate geological or environmental hazards or other site complications which pose a threat to the health and/or safety of students and staff.
The site shall not be on major arterial streets with a heavy traffic pattern as determined by site-related traffic studies including those that require student crossings unless mitigation of traffic hazards and a plan for the safe arrival and departure of students appropriate to the grade level has been provided by city, county or other public agency in accordance with the "School Area Pedestrian Safety" manual published by the California Department of Transportation, 1987 edition, incorporated into this section by reference, in toto.
Title 5 regulations allowing colleges to adopt prerequisites and corequisites by a content review process only is new and the following sections are intended to provide in-depth guidance on the requirements that colleges are expected to meet to adopt prerequisites and corequisites using this methodology.
Although not originally a part of matriculation, title 5 was later amended to include the college’s review and student challenge policy and process for prerequisites and corequisites as the eighth component of the matriculation plan. Section 55510(a)(6) and (7) requires college matriculation plans to include “procedures for establishing and periodically reviewing prerequisites pursuant to section 55003” and “procedures for considering student challenges to prerequisites established pursuant to section 55003.” As colleges develop new or revise existing policies and procedures related to the establishment of prerequisites and corequisites, it is important to note that each college is responsible for certifying the adoption of policies and procedures that are consistent with the requirements of title 5 in the college’s Matriculation plan. You can access information regarding requirements for Matriculation plans and certification on the Chancellor’s Office website under Student Services.
The intent of establishing prerequisites and corequisites is to help to assure student success; therefore, all college staff who work directly with students have a responsibility to be knowledgeable about the district’s prerequisite and corequisite policy and its implementation, at least to a degree commensurate with their level of contact with students. This can be made most effective by having prerequisite and corequisite policies and procedures, descriptions, and definitions written in clear, understandable language and widely distributed to the student body in catalogs, schedules of classes, student handbooks, flyers, signs, etc.
There are several purposes for which districts may choose to adopt policies for establishing prerequisites or corequisites. Title 5, section 55003(d) states that prerequisites or corequisites may be established for any of the following purposes:
If the verification shows that the student has failed to meet the prerequisite, the student may be involuntarily dropped from the course. If the student is dropped, the applicable enrollment fees shall be promptly refunded. Otherwise a student may only be involuntarily removed from a course due to excessive absences or as a result of disciplinary action taken pursuant to law or to the student code of conduct.
Title 5, section 55003(l)(2) ties the establishment of prerequisites and corequisites requiring precollegiate skills in reading, written expression , or mathematics with the student equity plan provisions of section 54220 to ensure that prerequisite and corequisite requirements do not have a disproportionate impact on particular groups of student in terms of race, ethnicity, gender, age, or disability. Section 54220 delineates the requirements for college student equity plans and identifies five broad areas that colleges are required to address: (1) access, (2) retention, (3) degree and certificate completion, (4) ESL and basic skills completion, and (5) transfer.
Prerequisites are conditions of enrollment that students are required to meet prior to enrollment in particular courses and programs. The assignment of a prerequisite to a course signifies that the course skills, or body of knowledge described in the prerequisite, are essential to the success of the student in that course and that it is highly unlikely that a student who has not met the prerequisite will receive a satisfactory grade in the course for which the prerequisite has been established.
