[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professor here. Not sure the advisor would be involved but [b]our dean’s office, the last approval in a late drop, would have caught it. [/b]

That sucks. [/quote]

PP, what does that mean exactly? I am not sure what "caught it" means. Do you mean before course is dropped or after? And if before, what do they do with that information? Prevent the student from dropping it? [/quote]

Dean of Undergraduate studies/Student affairs and/or their advisors should sign off and catch this - and confirm with student they have dropped below FT threshold.  Also to the "UMD doesn't" response

The service described in that link is different than the issue OP is having. Yes UMD advising office offers the services described there but if a student drop below 12, and loses merit scholarship, they do not play a role in that process. Students have to check in with them to make sure they are taking the right courses to meet the graduation requirements as well as new course sign up. [/quote]
