Auditing Courses
As defined by Connecticut College, auditors are usually special students or alumni of the College who attend the meetings of a course but receive no credit for such attendance. Students who wish to attend certain courses may do so as auditors by securing the approval of the instructor concerned and submitting paperwork to the Office of the Registrar during the Add/Delete period. Auditors may observe laboratory or studio techniques if such observation is made during the regular hours for the course or courses concerned. (Laboratory techniques are understood to include also those practiced in art, dance and music.) Auditors do not recite, participate, present papers or quizzes; they receive no special instruction in the course audited.
- Regular undergraduates are usually not allowed to audit.
- Once the Add/Delete period has ended, auditors may not change status to that of participating members of the class.
