Dartmouth student answering any and all questions

<p>Will it be hard to adjust if you’re not the hard-partying type?</p>

<p>And does being in the middle of nowhere bore you? What do students usually do for fun other than frat parties?</p>

<p>@juvenis</p>

<p>you’ll be fine. don’t worry about adjusting to life at the d. you’ll be able to find your niche. i promise.</p>

<p>as far as boredom and location, there’s always something going on; there are hundreds up hundreds of student organizations, there’s club and intramural sports, there’s guest lecturers, movies, plays, musical performances, concerts, and so much more. there’s a lot to do.</p>

<p>Hi, this is actually my first post in CC,</p>

<p>So Ill be attending Dartmouth next winter for an exchange program. Would it be difficult to do both econ 026 and econ 029 ? And how hard is professor Kohn?</p>

<p>Hello, I have a question about auditing a course.
The site says that "Any student wishing to earn credit for a course offered at Dartmouth must elect the course for a term in which he or she will be registered (having the enrollment pattern letter R or O), paying tuition, and actually performing in that term the full normal work of the course. "</p>

<p>So basically, we still have to pay for a course that we’re not receiving a credit for?</p>

<p>Auditing and earning credit are two different things. You can audit courses with the permission of the instructor. D has done so with some frequency. She does the reading, comes to class, participates, etc., but is spared the papers and/or tests. Doesn’t get the credits (doesn’t need them), but they are subjects/topics she wanted to learn. </p>

<p>And, your question about “pay[ing] for a course that we’re not receiving a credit for” seems to misapprehend how Dartmouth works. You don’t pay by course: you pay by term. Theoretically, if you loaded up and graduated a quarter early, you could reduce your “per credit” cost, I suppose, but you don’t pay anything “extra” for auditing.</p>
