like at ross, if one fails, s/he has to repeat the entire semester. And s/he can't even drop a class if s/he even wants to.

so anyone can tell me about your school's fail policy?

At the end of last semester SABA sent out a memo to irregular students (ones who have failed at least 1 class) and it said:

The new policy is that students will NOT be allowed to proceed to the next semester if ALL classes from the previous semester are NOT completed. Thus, if 1st semester you have 3 classes, Anatomy, Histology and Infomatics, and you fail Anatomy, then in second semester you will ONLY have 1 class, ANATOMY. Then in your 3rd semester you will be taking the regular 2nd semester classes of biochem, physio, and psych. The reasoning behind this is so that they don't have to modify the schedule all the time for the irregular students.

This policy was suppose to go in effect starting this semester, but I am not sure that it has. Anyone know for sure?
