Academic Honesty. Students of Bethany College, as members of an academic community dedicated to the achievement of excellence, are expected to meet the highest possible standards of personal, ethical, and moral conduct. The discovery, advancement, and communication of knowledge are best achieved through commitment to these standards. Furthermore, without the trust that these standards are observed, an academic community cannot exist. The principle of academic honesty, therefore, applies to the integrity of every project, presentation, examination, or assignment presented by every student, and any departure from high standards of personal, ethical, and moral conduct shall be considered as academic dishonesty.
After the last day to add a course during the regular semester, students who have not returned will be dropped from all their classes and their academic status will be changed to Non Returning. Enrollment Procedure. Returning students should schedule an appointment with his or her advisor to discuss class schedules. The advisor will enroll the student in classes or provide access for the student to enroll. Returning student enrollment dates. Students may begin enrolling on the date indicated and continue through the last day to add for the given term. Student enrollment dates are determined by academic classification.

A degree candidate’s program must have 31 out of the last 40 semester hours completed while in residence. Study Abroad. Bethany College offers study abroad opportunities for students. Credit will be given for courses taken in study abroad programs which are approved by the student’s advisor and the Registrar. Students must complete the study abroad form, obtain the required signatures, and submit it to the Registrar’s Office before any aid or credits will be approved. Information about study abroad programs is available through the Chief Academic Officer’s Office. Contact the Financial Aid Office for possible financial assistance. Bethany College institutional financial aid can be used to cover Study Abroad experiences. However, funds may be downward adjusted based on the charges the college is invoiced from the study abroad program.
Plagiarism is defined as the wrongful act of theft of the research, work, and/or intellectual or creative product of another person by presenting that other person’s intellectual or creative product as one’s own. In an institution of higher learning, plagiarism includes the presentation, without proper attribution, of intellectual work of some person other than the student who expects to receive credit for the work. “Intellectual work” is defined as ideas, writings, analysis, conclusions, discoveries, compilation of facts, opinions, compilation of data, interpretations, phrasing, and/or words.
Official Withdrawal from College. If students find it necessary to withdraw from Bethany College during an academic term, they must submit a completed Official Withdrawal from Bethany College form to the Registrar’s Office. A student who attends at least one class, but withdraws from school on or before the tenth day of classes, will receive the following transcript entry: “Withdrew from ____ hours after class attendance but before a grade of W would have been recorded.” Students leaving college without an official withdrawal may receive an “F” in all courses in which they had been registered. Refunds will be made, if applicable. The last official day to withdraw from the college is the same as the last day to withdraw from a full semester course without the penalty of an F.
