In order to attend any course at Pratt Munson, a student must:
- be formally approved for admission;
- have a program of courses documented and approved by the school’s Registrar on the appropriate registration form; and
- pay prescribed tuition and fees.
Students are fully responsible for tuition and fees after they complete steps one and two above. If students do not complete step three before the first day of class, their unpaid registrations are canceled and they are subject to the withdrawal penalties in effect at that time. Instructors will not admit students to classes in which they are not officially registered. Credit will not be recorded for a course taken without validated registration.
Registration dates will be determined by the Registrar. Responsibility for a correct registration and a correct academic record rests entirely with the student. Students are also responsible for knowing regulations regarding withdrawals, refund deadlines, program changes, and academic policy.
Identification Cards and Services
Upon entering Pratt Munson, students are issued identification cards which they must present to receive services available to students and to identify themselves to College officers as necessary. Persons who cannot or will not produce a student identification card are not recognized as students and are not entitled to student services.
Pratt Email Accounts and OnePratt Access
Pratt email, OneKey (usernames), and OnePratt accounts are automatically assigned to all Pratt Munson students at the time of admission by Pratt’s Information Technology Office.
The Pratt email address is the only form of authorized electronic communication at Pratt Munson. All official communication sent electronically will be sent to this address. Students and faculty are required to take advantage of this valuable channel for communication.
OnePratt (one.pratt.edu) is Pratt’s interactive student gateway. It provides access to grades, schedules, graduation and transcript applications, as well as other academic and registration-related information. No additional applications or activations are necessary.
Personal Data Changes
Students are responsible for reporting personal data changes to the Registrar’s Office. Consult the Registrar’s Office for procedural details on reporting these changes.
Chosen Name Change Policy
Munson recognizes that some members of the Munson community choose to use names other than their legal ones to identify themselves. As long as the use of the chosen name is not for the purposes of misrepresentation or attempting to avoid a legal obligation, Munson acknowledges that use of a chosen name may be used when possible in the course of business and education.
Any member of the Munson community may choose to identify a chosen first name in addition to their legal name. The chosen name will be used in all College business, except where use of the legal name is required. Some permanent records, such as payroll and Human Resources documents and records, student admission applications, financial aid, transcripts, etc. will require the use of a legal name. Chosen names may be used wherever reasonably possible, such as identification badges, email accounts, and student rosters. Munson will use legal names unless or until a chosen name is requested by using the “Chosen Name Change Request Form” or as indicated on any other College form.
Inappropriate use of the chosen name, including, but not limited to misrepresentation, attempting to avoid a legal obligation, may be cause for denying the request.
Munson will not charge for a change to a student’s legal name due to marriage, divorce, court order, etc. with proper documentation (i.e social Campus Safety card with new legal name). Students may request the change to their chosen name, via a form available in the Registrar’s Office, by the drop/add date at no charge. Thereafter, a fee of $25 will be charged to reprint the student ID card.
