Schedule Changes

• Core class and elective schedule changes take place the first three days of each semester.  
• Only parent(s)/guardian(s) will be able to submit request(s) through an online form.  
• Requests will be time-stamped and processed in the order received.  
• In addition, changes will be made as class size allows. 
• See UAHS website for the date when the form will be available.

Class changes generally will be made for the following reasons:

1. Courses scheduled in conflict
2. A senior needs to make a change to meet graduation requirements
3. A technical error was made in the schedule
4. The course has been completed in summer school
5. A more appropriate level of a subject for the student is determined after discussion with student, family and teacher.

Dropping a course may endanger athletic eligibility. 

There will be no schedule changes to accommodate lunch period preferences.

Students cannot schedule more than two forums/study halls during any semester. Students (in grade 11/12) will only be given late arrival or early release - not both.

• Students have the first six weeks of each semester to drop a course without penalty. 
• If a student drops a course after the first six weeks, a withdraw fail (W/E) will appear on your transcript. 
• Please be advised, dropping a course may endanger athletic eligibility. 

• A student may request a level change within the first six weeks of the school year.
• Level changes are subject to class size and availability.
• The order of a student's schedule may be altered to accommodate a level change.
• If a level change is granted, the weight of the grade earned at the end of the semester will reflect the level of the class the student completed. A student moving from a higher-level course will not receive added weight for the weeks in that course.

It is possible for a student to “audit” a course if space permits and proper approval is secured.  The following conditions and understandings apply for audited courses:

• Students are expected to actively participate and regularly attend the class.
• All work will be reviewed by the instructor and the student will receive feedback (not necessarily a grade) regarding the quality of work submitted.
• Students must be enrolled in five (5) additional courses for credit.
• Audited courses do not count toward athletic eligibility.
• Credit will not be awarded in the course and an “NG” will appear on the transcript to indicate “audit”.
• Graduation requirements cannot be taken as an audit.
• An audit cannot be changed back to a letter grade.

Please see your school counselor for the audit form.

Credit for a specific course will be granted only once.  Repeating a course is an option for:

• Grade improvement - repeat a course for an improved grade (C- or lower).  
• Recovering a credit during the school year or in summer school.

When a student repeats a course, either to improve a grade or gain a credit because of a failure the transcript will show both attempts and both grades.  The higher of the grades earned will become the grade calculated into the GPA.
