The Fall 2016 term is about to begin. Let’s take a look at the dates and details that LDT students need to know.
August 22, 2016, Monday – Courses open on Canvas. Students may access and review course materials by logging-in at cms.psu.edu. Instructors will likely send a preliminary message to students inviting them to review the course. Some instructors may choose to begin the first week’s lesson(s) on Monday, but others may use Monday and Tuesday as orientation time.
August 24, 2016, Wednesday – Lessons begin. The LDT program uses a Wednesday to Tuesday lesson schedule, which you can read more about here.
August 27, 2016, Saturday – Regular Drop Deadline: A class dropped on or after the first day of class [August 22, 2016] and on or before this date will not be reflected on your transcript. Courses dropped after this deadline will incur a drop fee. See the World Campus reference page about dropping a course. Overall, a student must decide to drop a course promptly to avoid having the course reflected on the transcript and incurring a fee.
If you have any questions about your course, please write to your instructor either via your Canvas Inbox or by e-mail.
We are happy to have you in our program. Have a great semester, and work smart!
