Student Standards and Regulations
Students in the ICPP Certificate program are subject to the same standards and regulations as all Wesleyan students. For a complete overview of student standards and regulations please consult the Student Handbook.
ICPP Policies
Withdrawal and Refund Policy: If admitted students withdraw from the program, there will be no refund of deposit or tuition.
Leaves of Absence: If an admitted student begins and fails to complete the program due to health, personal, or other reasons, s/he will not be permitted to complete the program another year, but must reapply as a new student.
Grading: Courses are graded with letter grades A-F or Credit/No Credit based on the course; students may not elect to take a graded course as Credit/No Credit.
Incompletes: Professors may grant incompletes on a case-by-case basis, but all course work in all courses must be completed by April 15, otherwise a certificate will not be awarded.
Attendance Policy: Students must attend all ICPP sessions in order to successfully complete the program.
Required Withdrawal: The ICPP reserves the right to refuse to retain any student in any program or course at any time. An instructor may require a student to withdraw from a course if the student fails to meet the announced conditions of enrollment. Students are responsible for withdrawing officially even if the instructor has determined that they may not continue in the course.
Academic Discipline: ICPP students are expected to maintain a B average and have completed all work for their courses by April 15 (no outstanding incompletes) in order to be eligible to be awarded the certificate.
Tuition and Fees: Tuition for ICPP is $9,500. A $500 deposit is due by May 15 in order to secure a spot in the program. Full tuition is due by June 15. Students who have not paid full tuition by June 15 risk losing their spot in the program. Tuition is payable by check to Wesleyan University. If a student elects to participate in the payment plan offered through TMS, they must remain up to date with their payments; a student's account must be in good standing in order for them to participate in the program—including on-campus residencies.
Electronic Portfolio: All ICPP students are given an electronic portfolio, accessible from the main page of the Wesleyan University website. Through the e-portfolio, students may view current classes, schedules, and classroom locations, as well as academic history including grades. Students' grades for current courses will appear in their e-portfolios within 48 hours after the grades have been submitted. To log in to your e-portfolio, visit www.wesleyan.edu/portfolio.
Photo Identification Card: All ICPP students are expected to have a current Wesleyan photo identification card, called the WesCard. This card provides access to library borrowing privileges and access to other campus facilities such as the athletic center, and some classroom buildings. It also must be presented to obtain student discounts where advertised.
Library Facilities: ICPP students have borrowing privileges at Wesleyan libraries. Students should consult the library's website for hours of operation and other information: http://www.wesleyan.edu/libr. Reference help is available in the library, by phone (860-685-3873) or by email (reference@wesleyan.edu). For more involved research, students can make appointments with a librarian: http://www.wesleyan.edu/libr/services/personalresearch.html. ICPP students are advised to pay close attention to the library’s loan and recall policies if borrowing books in between on-campus residencies.

Resetting Student Password: If a student forgets his or her password, the password will need to be reset.
