Requesting a Cohort Change
Please read the following information carefully. Note that by submitting your completed request form, you are indicating that you have read and understand all the information on this page. If you have any questions, please contact Sheila Roupe at 989-774-3975 or email us.
1. This service is offered to aid students who are unable to attend one of their originally scheduled cohort classes due to a
time conflict with another course. TEPD will make every effort to help students change to a different section of a cohort
class but there is absolutely no guarantee that requests can be honored.
2. In order to honor requests, we must be able to match your request up with someone who wants to make the opposite switch.
We will continue to make switches as space permits until the beginning of the Spring 2012 semester. If your request has
not been met by that time, please call the office the first week before classes start to see if an alternate section is
available that would work with your schedule.
3. To find out if your request has been met, you will need to check on icentral.
4. Forms will be considered null and void if:
(a) you submit more than one form for each class you want to switch,
(b) you already have a class scheduled in the time period when the seat you requested becomes available
(c) you request that we switch your classes only if all the requests you submitted can be met
(d) you submit handwritten forms or email requests
(e) you submit a request with your currently assigned section as one of your choices
(g) when submitting forms to change more than one class, the order of requested changes is not consistent from form to
form if a specific order is requested.
(h) you do not include your CMU Student ID (5-6 digit number) on the form. Your request will not be considered without
your CMU Student ID.
5. If you request a change for each class in your cohort, there is no guarantee that all classes can be switched. You may end up
with classes on 3 or 4 days of the week if only some of your classes can be switched.
6. If your cohort class gets switched and you decide you would prefer the previously assigned section, you will have to fill out
another form to see if you can be switched back again. We will not be able to automatically switch you back.
7. You are responsible for the end result of any switches you request.
