Included below is a copy of a memorandum recently mailed to students who are expected to be assessed the statutory repeat course surcharge. It will be mailed to all undergraduate students in September, when the majority of local student addresses are updated.
The “excess hours surcharge” will not be implemented this fall since no legislative authority has been provided for the 1998-99 academic year.
Please assure that this information is circulated to all staff and faculty advisors.
Thanks.
