Cancelled Courses – Low EnrollmentsDuring registration, course enrollments are monitored weekly by both the Office of Summer, Winter & Special Programs and the Office of Professional Programs. You will be notified by the corresponding office of any course cancellations prior to the start of the semester. Summer and Winter Courses Approximately one week before the session begins the Special Sessions Policy Committee (SSPC) reviews course enrollments for each department. Courses with insufficient enrollments may be recommended for cancellation. If the SSPC recommends canceling an under-enrolled course, the OSWSP notifies the department chair and instructor. Special circumstances may warrant offering the course despite low enrollments (with the approval of the SSPC). If a course is cancelled, all students are automatically de-registered from the class, the OSWSP removes the course from the schedule of classes, notifies the necessary administrative departments on campus and contacts enrolled students. The instructor’s contract is revised, cancelled or reissued as needed. Note: Courses cancelled due to low enrollment still incur a standard OSWSP administrative cost.
Cancelled Classes – Inclement Weather or University Closings Classes cancelled due to inclement weather or an emergency closing of UMBC will be rescheduled for the first Saturday following the canceled class at the normal meeting time and place. Instructors may also choose to schedule an alternative make-up day or time for their courses at their discretion (contact CPS to verify room availability).
