Fall Semester 2013
Registration Instructions and Priorities
Continuing Students
When you can register is based on the total number of earned credits
that you have completed, and that you have had officially transferred
to Snow College. Only credit that shows on your Snow College transcript
will count toward your registration priority. Credit completed at another
institution or through Advanced Placement must be received in the Admissions
Office by March 4, 2013 in order to be entered by the registration dates.
*You must see an advisor before you can register
*On-line registration opens at 7:00 a.m. on
March 18th.
If you experience problems with on-line registration, please call 283-7141, 283-7142, 283-7143, 283-7145, or 283-7146 after 8:00 am or come to the registration windows.
*Registration windows will be open at 8:00 a.m. Paper registration forms will be accepted at the window beginning at 8:00 a.m.. The windows close at 5:00 p.m.

Concurrent Enrollment and
On-Campus High School Students
If you have Snow College earned hours, you can
register with your priority if you have seen a Snow
College advisor and been re-admitted. All high
school students MUST be re-admitted each
semester prior to registration by the Admissions
Office. Call Admissions at 283-7144. Advising is
required before students can register. Contact the
Advisement Office at 283-7313 for an appointment.
New and Transfer Students
New and transfer students may register by:
1. Scheduling an on-campus appointment in advance with the Advisement
Office. Students should schedule an advising appointment as soon as they
are admitted to the college by calling 435-283-7313 or
e-mailing Advisement@snow.edu. (Appointments are required) During the
advisement session, an advisor will help students select classes appropriate
to their major, goals, and interests. Students outside of the state of
Utah may call the Advisement Office to make a phone appointment.
Advising
You must be advised before you can register. For an appointment for in-person advising, contact the Student Success Office at 435-283-7313. We strongly encourage fact-to-face advising! During your advising appointment, an advisor will help you select a class schedule that is appropriate to your major, interests, and goals.
For online advising, go to www.snow.edu/~advise, then go to “New Student Advisement.”
If you choose this option, you will: 1) read the advising information online, 2) communicate
with an advisor via email, and 3) register for classes over the internet.
Web Registration Instructions
1. Obtain your BADGER ID number and a
Personal Identification Number (PIN) from
the Registration or Advisement Offices, so

these numbers secure so that no one can
access your records and violate your privacy.
You are able to access your file, check your
schedule and obtain grade information
through “Badger Web”.
2. Access the system before your scheduled
registration date and make sure you have
the correct PIN. Your PIN will begin

Auditing a Course
Students auditing courses are required to pay the same tuition and fees
as those who register for credit and the same refund policies apply. An
audit must be declared at the time of registration.
Senior Citizen Students
Senior Citizens, age 62 and over, may enroll on an audit basis in any
college course offered (as space is available) by completing an Application
for Admission and paying a one-time application fee. The Admissions Office
will issue a registration form to be signed by the instructor not earlier
than the first day of class. A $30.00 admissions fee, which covers all
costs except books and lab fees, is required each semester. Senior Citizens
desiring credit for courses taken should register according to regular
registration policies and procedures.
Off-Campus Tuition and
Fees
Most credit courses and programs that are not included in the regular
fall and spring daytime schedule of the college are managed by the Continuing
Education Division. Continuing Education fees cover the cost of delivering
a class or program to areas or locations outside of the regular on-campus
college program. Continuing Education students are not eligible for athletic
events or other on-campus activities. Students attending Snow College
and carrying 10 or more credit hours are eligible to enroll in the Voluntary
Student Health Insurance Plan.
Financial Aid Recipients
Financial aid funding is not disbursed until the semester begins. It is
the student’s responsibility to pay the student fee charge by Aug. 26.
Scholarship Recipients
Please pay the student fee charge by Aug. 26. If your scholarship covers
fees, you will be reimbursed at the beginning of the semester.
Student I. D. Card
If you are a new student, you must obtain a student I.D./Activity card.
Tuition and fees must be paid before the card can be issued.
A one time $5.00 fee is assessed. This card will admit you without charge
to many college events and is needed to check books out of the library.
Continuing students will have their I.D. cards validated when they pay
their tuition and fees. The I.D. card is valid for as long as you are
a student at Snow College. If you lose your card, you may apply for a
duplicate for a $5.00 fee.

Aid Handbook.
Registration Policy -
Adding and Withdrawing from Courses
Students may add or withdraw from classes over
the Internet until the first day of class or by coming
to the Registration Office to process a registration
form. Special notice should be given to the
deadlines for adding and withdrawing from courses
during the semester.
Change of Program Form
Once a semester has begun, a student who wishes
to add or drop a course must file a Change of
Program Form with the Registration Office. The
student bears the full responsibility for acquiring the
appropriate signatures and filing the form by the
appropriate deadline. Failure to meet this
responsibility, for any reason, may significantly
impair a student’s academic progress.
Open Entry/Open Exit Courses
Many departments offer courses that have no
specific deadlines by which a student must add or
drop. Such courses are exempt from the calendar
policies that follow.
Change Fee
Any change of program outlined below may be
accomplished during the first three weeks of
instruction without a fee being charged. Any time
after the third week of instruction, a $25 Change
of Program Fee will be charged.
Changes During Weeks 1-3
A student may add or drop a course through the
last day of the third week of instruction of any
regular semester by submitting a completed Change
of Program Form to the Registration Office. Listed
below are the signature requirements:
a. Week One -- Adding a class:
Class open = no instructor signature is required
Class closed = Instructor signature IS required
b. Weeks Two and Three -- Adding a class:
Instructor signature required for all open and
closed courses
c. Weeks One through Three -- Dropping a class:
No instructor signature required
Changes During Weeks 4-10
A student may add or drop a course from the
first day of the fourth week of instruction
through the last day of the tenth week of
instruction of any regular semester as long as
the following conditions are met:
a. The student has the signature of the
instructor teaching the course.
b. The student has the signature of his or
her advisor.
c. The student has filed a Change of
Program Form with the Registration
Office.
2. When a student drops a course during this
period, the student’s permanent record
will show a grade of “W” for the course.
A “W” does not affect the student’s grade
point average.
Unofficial Withdrawal
If a student drops a course at any time in the semester but does not file
a signed Change of Program Form with the Registration Office, the student’s
permanent record will show a grade of “UW” or “F”
for the course. Both of these are failing grades and will drastically
lower a student’s grade point average.
Special Consideration
A change of program should not be treated lightly. In every case, students,
instructors, and advisors should do what is best for everyone involved.
Students especially should be aware that in many courses it is difficult
to make-up missed labs, lectures, or assignments. Instructors are under
no obligation to add a student to any class at any time.
Students are expected to attend all classes for which they are registered
until the class is officially dropped from their schedule.
Withdrawal From College
Students are permitted to completely withdraw from school until the end
of the tenth week of the semester. Withdrawal forms may be obtained from
the Registration Office. After the tenth week of instruction, the student
will be required to show that extenuating circumstances exist making it
necessary to withdraw from school. A student who
is ADA qualified and wishes to withdraw may contact the Americans with
Disabilities Act Coordinator at 435-283-7321.
Adding and Dropping Non-Traditional
Session Classes
Students may add or drop non-traditional session classes (classes which
do not begin or end with regular session classes) at the Registration
Office. Deadlines for adding and dropping non-traditional session classes
are published in the semester class schedule. All transactions require
student, instructor, and advisor signatures.
Attendance
Regular and prompt attendance is expected of every student. Instructors
may vary in their individual attendance policies. An instructor may submit
an administrative drop (UW) if a student:
1. Misses the first day of class
2. Ceases to attend class as evidenced by
excessive unauthorized absences, missed
exams and/or assignments.
When an administrative drop is processed, an unofficial withdrawal “UW”
will be assigned to the student’s record. A “UW” is
calculated as a failing grade (F) in the grade point average.
Repeating a Class
A course may be repeated to obtain a higher grade. Both courses will show
on the academic record; however, only the last grade earned is calculated
in the grade point average and the credit is only counted once. Retakes
are limited to two per course (a total of three attempts at any one course).
Once a retake has been completed, students need to contact the Registration
Office to be sure the first grade is discounted from the GPA. Students
must register and pay tuition for the semester in which the class is repeated.
Hours earned in repeated courses may be counted toward graduation requirements
only once. An exception is any course designated as “repeatable
for credit” which will be given credit each time the course is taken.
A course is designated as repeatable in the class schedule and/or current
course catalog. Note: A course repeated at another institution cannot
be used to change the GPA on a Snow College transcript.
Legislative mandate:
By legislative mandate, the State of Utah requires that students be charged
the “full cost of instruction” the third time they enroll
in the same course. An additional fee of $100 per credit hour may be
charged for the repeated class. Subsequent registrations in the course
will also be assessed the $100 per credit hour fee. This policy does not
apply to classes taken prior to Fall Semester 2002. This means that beginning
Fall Semester 2002 if you took the same class three times, you would be
charged $100 per credit hour in addition to the regular cost of tuition.
This fee does not apply to courses that are repeatable as designated in
the class schedule and/or course catalog.
Student Responsibility
It is the students’ responsibility to ensure the accuracy of their
schedule. Check for accuracy at each of these times:
1. At the time of registration
2. When a class is added or dropped
3. If the first day of class is missed for any
reason
4. If a class is missed for more than two
consecutive times
5. Before the last day to add or drop classes
Students may check their class schedule at any time by going to the Advisement
Office, the Registration Office, the Cashiers’Office, or the Internet
(www.snow.edu). If students will not be at the first class meeting for
any reason, they must inform the instructor prior to class time, or they
may be administratively withdrawn. (given a failing grade of “UW”)

all students who have graduated in Fall Semester
2012, or who will graduate in Spring Semester
2013, or Summer Term 2013. The college wants all
candidates for graduation to be present at Commencement.
Students deserve to be honored on this
day. Unfortunately there is a limited amount of
spectator space in the gymnasium area of the Activity
Center where the ceremony is held. There is a considerable
amount of overflow seating available to family and
friends who wish to attend graduation exercises in
the lifetime sports area of the Activity Center.
Any person who feels he or she may need special accommodations connected with the graduation ceremonies may contact the Americans With Disabilities

Graduation with Honors
Students who have completed all graduation requirements and have earned
a cumulative grade point average at Snow College as follows will graduate
with honors. Only courses numbered 1000 or above are counted.
3.50 - 3.74 Cum Laude

Graduation Survey
In order to evaluate the quality of the education students receive at
Snow College, each graduate is asked to take an assessment and complete
a survey before graduation. The test is an assessment of the general knowledge
students have gained at Snow College. It is NOT an assessment of learning
in any specific course. The survey is an assessment of students general
opinions about the college. The results of the assessment and survey are
confidential. They do not appear on transcripts and have no bearing on
graduation status. The results from all students are combined to provide
faculty, administration, and the Utah Board of Regents information about
the knowledge and opinions of Snow College students. To complete this
request students should visit the Testing Center any time during the last
six weeks on campus or turn in the survey that was mailed to the student’s
home address. Extra study or preparation in advance is not necessary.
General Education Requirements
Students seeking an Associate Degree and who are admitted to Snow College beginning Fall Semester 2009 are required to complete the General Education requirements in effect for Fall Semester 2009.
