Is it possible to use an Independent Study Course as a replacement for a required Seton course?
Yes, but only in situations involving special needs, exceptional learning resources or exceptional learning opportunities or other conditions in which using the Independent Study Course instead of a standard Seton course is clearly in the best interests of the student. These subjects are usually in the Foreign Language, Math, and Science areas. All texts, instructional materials, learning objectives, instructional plans and methods, requirements, standards, grading criteria and instruments, and instructor credentials to be used in the proposed replacement Independent Study, as indicated on the Request Form*, must be evaluated and approved by Seton prior to the start of instruction. Most of the materials which our families would be using are familiar to us and can be quickly approved.
