General Registration Information

Office of Academic Assessment http://usm.maine.edu/testing/assessment/
Newly admitted degree students including freshmen, transfer and readmitted students, who have not otherwise met proficiency, are required to complete a placement examination in mathematics before registering for courses. The result of the examination will be used to determine appropriate course placement. The costs associated with this exam are covered in the student’s enrollment fee. For information, contact the Office of Academic Assessment (207-228-8086), 240 Luther Bonney Hall, Portland. Non-degree (non-matriculated) students are encouraged to take placement examinations prior to registering for courses in math. Non-degree students pay a fee of $20.00 for each examination taken.

Course Cancellations
The University reserves the right to cancel courses in the case of low enrollment.

Variable Credit, Pass/Fail, Audit, and Repeat Courses
Students may request variable credit, Pass/Fail, and audit on the registration worksheet which will be used during the registration process.

**Changing grade option from P/F, Audit or normal grading must be completed by the end of the 2nd week of classes. Grade change option will not apply after this date.**  

Please note however, that courses taken to satisfy CORE curriculum, academic honors, major and/or minor requirements may not be taken on a pass/fail or audit basis. Students repeating a course (not completing an incomplete 'I' grade) need to complete a Repeat Course form.
