11 The Washington Center • Course Guide Are there any other classroom policies? Students are expected to conduct themselves in a professional manner during all of their curricular and co- curricular engagements at The Washington Center. Your professor may have specific expectations about participation or professionalism in class, which will be included in the syllabus. With a small class size, preparation for and active engagement in class are essential to achieving the full learning benefit. Can I take two courses? Students are generally not permitted to take two courses. If you have a specific need or concern, you should first communicate with your university liaison and then reach out to your pre-arrival advisor. What if my university requires that I take a specific course? In most cases, we can accommodate enrollment in a course requested by your university. Please reach out to courses@twc.edu, or ask your university liaison or other appropriate staff member to reach out, and provide any documentation from your university indicating the requirement of a specific course. Can I switch courses? Yes. Please consult the Add/Drop section located earlier in this document. You will be able to access the Add/Drop form through Canvas during the first week of courses. I received a financial award from TWC: Is there anything special I should know? Students who received a financial award from TWC must earn a grade of "C" or better. Students with a "C-" or less in any program component (internship, career readiness programming, or evening course) are required to return the full amount of the award. Will I have the opportunity to give feedback on my evening course? Yes. There is a survey about your experience at the end of the term that allows you to provide feedback regarding your evening course experience. Any feedback is shared with faculty only after grades have been calculated. Your insights are greatly appreciated! What if I have another question you haven't answered? First, try seeing if the answer is in your syllabus, which you can find on Canvas. If it's not, your course professor will likely be able to help. If neither of those options resolves your concern, you can always reach out to us at courses@twc.edu. Is there a dress code for evening courses? TWC expects all participants to aim for professionalism in all their curricular and co-curricular engagements. Accordingly, we ask that students dress in appropriate casual or business casual attire.
