Students are required to participate in the first class session (or class activity if in an online class).
Failure to do so could result in the student being dropped from the course according to the campus no-
show policy. Additional attendance beyond the first day may be required by the instructor as outlined in
the course syllabus.
If withdrawn from a class, the student may be eligible to re-enroll in the class.
CALENDAR
Two 15-week semesters, and one 10-week summer session are offered. Selected programs are
offered at other dates. A midterm (December) and spring (May) graduation are held on campus.
CLASS ADDITIONS, TRANSFERS, & WITHDRAWALS/DROPS
Students may add, transfer or drop classes up until the first class session via the registration/drop
process. Once a course has started, instructor or dean approval is required to register.
Students adding/dropping/transferring classes need to either:
•
Obtain a Course Audit/Drop/Transfer form and return the form to Student Records for processing
•
Drop/Add a class online by following instructions on MyLTC
•
Contact Student Records
(Note: It is advised that students contact their advisor prior to dropping to discuss potential
impact on financial aid, refunds, and other educational impacts. Following the second week of
classes, academic advisor approval is required in order to drop a course
).
Students are responsible for officially dropping classes or withdrawing from classes. Stopping attendance
in class does not constitute withdrawing from class. LTC will only drop students from courses if the student
initiates a drop as described above or as the result of a policy violation (including violation of the campus
first-day no-show policy). Class fee refunds are issued in accordance with guidelines established by the
Wisconsin Technical College System. The amount of the refund received is based on a number of factors,
including when the drop occurred and how much class meeting time has elapsed.
Any student not participating on the first day of class may be dropped from the class. An attempt will be
made to contact the student before dropping them from the class. However, it is important to drop the
student quickly if there are students on the class waitlist so they can register for the class and attend
the next class meeting. No shows will be processed as first day drops and any refunds processed
according to WTCS guidelines.
CLEP/DSST OR DIVISION/DEPARTMENT EXAM
Students may be able to earn college credit by examination. LTC administers the College Level Examination
Program (CLEP) and the DSST testing process for specific subject areas. Testing fees are applicable.
The CLEP/DSST exams must be taken and scored prior to the start of the LTC-equivalent class.
LTC administers CLEP/DSST subject exams by appointment.
