Registration
A complete registration consists of the payment of tuition and fees, course registration, and the filling out of student data forms. No names will be on the class roll unless all registration procedures have been completed according to instructions. Once admitted (or re-admitted) to PNU, the person becomes a PNU student at the beginning of the semester which he/she was admitted. Student status is retained until graduation, unless the student withdraws, or is required to withdraw, or fails to complete registration in a given period. Newly admitted students must complete their registration before the beginning of a semester within the given period specified in the Academic Calendar. Freshmen complete their registration in February. The upperclassmen may register early, at the end of the previous semester.
Leave of Absence
Student who cannot attend more than three-fourths of the total semester hours may apply for leave of absence. Those students must obtain permission from the Dean of the College of Graduate School and apply for leave of absence during the registration period. The term of absence cannot exceed six semesters in undergraduate program, four semesters in Master's program, and six semesters in Doctoral program. Otherwise the student will be dismissed, unless it is due to military service. Failure to enroll within the given period without permission for leave of absence will result in dismissal. Failure to obtain the degree within the permitted period of time will also result in dismissal. Students who have been dismissed according to the University regulations are not, allowed for further registration. Students who wish to leave the University permanently must report to the Dean of the College or the Graduate School. Foreign students and special students for non-degree programs are also subjected to the same regulations.
