On Campus

The Official Student Handbook 2009-2010

Preface

On Campus is the official student handbook of Georgia State University. It is published by the Division of Student Affairs to provide you with information about campus resources, student life, and university procedures. Please note that, although the enclosed information has been carefully compiled, it will not substitute for face-to-face interaction. Professors, administrators, counselors, and University staff members can be an invaluable resource during the course of your college career, and meeting you adds to their experience, as well. Make every effort you can to develop relationships with professors, deans, and academic advisors. You will be glad you did.

The University makes this handbook available to each student, and it is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with its contents. By enrolling at this institution, you agree to comply with all rules and regulations. Ignorance of a policy or regulation will not be considered an excuse for failure to observe it. This handbook is also distributed to faculty and staff. Academic policies are covered in the General Catalog; the individual regulations of the various colleges can be found there as well. The University reserves the right to alter the regulations and policies stated herein through normal channels.

Georgia State University does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, handicap or ethnic origin in its administration of educational policies, loan and scholarship policies, or any other faculty, staff or student program or activity. The most current version of this handbook is available on the Georgia State University Web site at www.gsu.edu/deanofstudents.
