Auditing a Course

Juniors and Seniors may audit one course per semester, during the regular academic year, with the permission of the relevant faculty member. Students must formally register as an auditor before the end of the Course Change (add/drop) period. Courses taken as an audit do not carry credit and the audit grade designation does not count in the grade point average. Students may not change from an audit to a regular grade, or vice versa, after the Course Change deadline. A full-time student (enrolled in either four or five courses in any given semester) may audit one course in their time at Franklin without charge. Additional audits carry a fee and the same fee applies to part-time students auditing a course. Auditing Academic Travel courses is not permitted.
