Remote Student Status
Students may request remote student status for one semester. The application will open Friday, July 24. Students may access the application HERE.
Remote Student Status means the student remains at home and participates in classes online only. It is important for students to understand that 98% of Centenary fall classes are planned for hybrid delivery, meaning the classes include both in-person and remote delivery. If a student chooses remote status, the student will have the opportunity to meet all course learning objectives but will not be able to participate in all class activities, as some are planned to occur in person.
For students that elect Remote Student Status, they need to be aware of the following possible ramifications:
- Course faculty may request that remote students postpone enrollment in their course to a later term if they believe that will benefit student progress. The student will be assisted in transferring to a different course for fall, but this may affect student progress toward the major.
- Students who choose remote student status may not participate in any in-person or on campus activities including athletics, Greek Life, choir, theatre, student activities, student organizations, or any other on campus activity. They may participate in remote class and remote campus activities
- Remote student status may require a change in a student’s financial aid package. Components of a student's financial aid package, such as work study, may be impacted. Each student would be notified of such by the Office of Financial Aid.
- Residence Rooms:
- Students may hold their current residence room for the semester and move in at a later date. This requires payment for the full semester and is non-refundable.
- Students may return to campus later in the semester for a prorated rate, but current room assignment will not be guaranteed.
- Once a student moves-off campus, they will not be allowed to return for the semester.
- Consistent with longstanding policy, room charges are not refundable.
