YOU'RE READY TO BEGIN YOUR COURSEWORK!
Self-discipline, time management, the ability to follow the detailed
course syllabus and textbook instructions, and regular submittal of
assignments will ensure your success in your self-paced coursework!
In order
for lab instruction to be meaningful to students, it is important that
students receive continual feedback from their grading instructor.
Therefore, from the date of check-in with lab personnel, students will
submit their graded assignments on a
weekly basis throughout the Summer session.
Please submit your graded assignments and Quizzes as you complete
them; do not submit all assignments in one package or the last week of
the Summer session—they will not be accepted by your
grading instructor and will be returned to you, resulting in a grade of
“F” earned for the course. Please
refer to
Appendix A in
the Lab Procedures Manual for Summer session dates.
We look forward to meeting you soon!
