As such, this shall be done by at least two student decision points of the term:
  1. By the end of Week 6 (prior to deadline to withdraw from a class or change grading option which is end of Week 7)
  2. Prior to the final exam
• Other essential course information

Graduate classes with more than 5 students are encouraged to have a Canvas site that is published by the first day of each term’s classes and be used at a minimum for the communication of course information, as listed above.
