When you enroll in an MP*51 course, the number of credit hours you register for determines the expectations. There are also some activities that are required of all students enrolled in an MP*51 course even those taking MP*51 for zero credits. The following table describes these expectations. Exceptions can be made to adjust requirements on a case by case basis (e.g. taking 2 credits but not following an existing open source group because you are contributing heavily to an open source project), but that requires prior discussion and arrangement.
Everyone including zero credit students are responsbile for attending regular COSI meetings, submitting a web page at midterm time and at the end of the semester and contributing to COSI-wide projects as specified by the student directors and faculty advisor of COSI.
