COURSE EVALUATION: Grading Scale:

MATH HELP LAB: Math tutoring is available as a free service to MTSU students in KOM 204 and KOM 252. Tutoring is conducted by Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs), work study aids, and a faculty moderator. Tutoring will be available starting September 7 with hours of operation to be determined. The lab is closed on weekends and MTSU scheduled holidays. Days and times for tutoring specific topics are posted on the bulletin board outside room KOM 252. Please sign in with your name, course and instructor when you enter the lab. Forms for comments on your tutoring experience can be found at the sign in table and turned in to the secretary in KOM 223D.

KOM 252 TUTORIAL LAB SCHEDULE: Listed on Department of Mathematical Sciences webpage, at Students link

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING DATES AND INFORMATION: - Last day to drop without a grade. - Last day to drop with a "W". A grade of I will be given only in accordance with the University Policy. If you have a disability that may require assistance or accommodation, or you have questions related to any accommodations for testing, note takers, readers, etc., please speak with me as soon as possible. Students may also contact the Office of Disabled Students Services (898-2783) with questions about such services.

To retain Tennessee Education Lottery Scholarship eligibility, you must earn a cumulative TELS GPA of 2.75 after 24 and 48 attempted hours and a cumulative TELS GPA of 3.0 thereafter. You may qualify with a 2.75 cumulative GPA after 72 attempted hours (and subsequent semesters), if you are enrolled full-time and maintain a semester GPA of at least 3.0. A grade of C, D, F, or I in this class may negatively impact TELS eligibility. Dropping a class after 14 days may also impact eligibility; if you withdraw from this class and it results in an enrollment status of less than full time, you may lose eligibility for your lottery scholarship. Lottery recipients are eligible to receive the scholarship for a maximum of five years from the date of initial enrollment, or until a bachelor degree is earned. For additional Lottery rules, please refer to your Lottery Statement of Understanding form, review lottery requirements on the web at http://scholarships.web.mtsu.edu/telsconteligibility.htm, or contact the Financial Aid Office at 898-2830. Departmental Drop Policy: No grade of W will be assigned after the official drop date except in situations involving extreme extenuating circumstances beyond the student's control. In particular, a W will not be granted merely because the student is failing. Students should be aware that missing the official drop date and thereby receiving an F can have ramifications on financial aid.
