4 things worth doing early
"Please be aware that NAU makes grades available to the student's advisor and Northern Arizona University's Dean of Students as well as to the Arizona high school and/or community college the student previously attended, if applicable."
"Unless prohibited by the faculty member for educational reasons, editing and/or proofreading by another person is not considered cheating." Having someone else write the work is still off limits.
"if students enroll in a letter grade course for the "A"-Pass-Fail option, they receive an "A" when they earn that grade; grades "B," "C," and "D" appear on the transcript as a "P"; and they receive an "F" when they earn that grade."
"If the student wishes to dispute the violation and/or sanction, they must reply to the faculty member within three (3) business days of the faculty member's integrity violation notification to request an initial meeting."
Gus is an AI college companion built around your actual classes. Record a lecture and it writes the notes, pulls out the key topics, builds a flashcard deck, and makes a practice quiz from what was actually said. The flashcards come back on a spaced-review schedule, so the thing you missed shows up again right before you would have forgotten it. It is free to try.
Away for a team or club trip? Give 5 days notice
"Instructors are not obligated to honor Student Institutional Excuses provided less than five (5) business days prior to the start of the time period covered by the Student Institutional Excuse".
