Individuals may take classes that are at their level or below.
PR stands for "Prerequisite," meaning the student must have completed and passed the listed class(es).
How are classes chosen?
We will comment on your student's application with a link to the sign up page when a new term begins. If you are just joining the group, you can list your classes on your student's app and they will be recorded.
What is an assignment and how do I get it?
Assignments are posted by the teachers in the assignments journal at the beginning of a term (sometime during January, then during April, then during July, and then October). The students taking that class are listed under the class, and you turn in your assignment by submitting it to the group, then posting it onto the professor's journal with the name of the student and the class. The teacher will update the assignment list to show you finished your assignment. Grades are assigned at the end of the term, before the new term is posted.
How are assignments graded?
Each assignment is graded on a 0-5 scale.
0: The assignment was not turned in
1: The assignment is way below average. For writing it's probably around 100 words, or has a lot of spelling and grammar errors. For art, it's probably a sloppily done sketch or sketchy lineart.
2: The assignment is below average. For writing it's probably around 300 words, or has a lot of spelling and grammar errors. For art, maybe it's a sloppily made lineart with sloppy coloring, or a complex but still sketchy piece.
3: The assignment is about average. For writing it's probably around 500 words, maybe a spelling or grammar error here or there. For art, it's probably a nicely colored sketch, or a lineart that was colored sloppily.
4: The assignment is above average. For writing it's probably around 800 words, and it doesn't have grammar or spelling errors, as it's well polished. If it's art, it's probably simplistic but well done in nature, like a single character colored picture with no background.
5: The assignment went above and beyond. For writing that's about 1000 words with no errors. For art, it's a multiple character piece with nice lineart and coloring, or a single character picture with a nice background.
Please note that combining art and writing can boost your score. For example, you could do a single character nicely colored picture with no background with 500 words of polished story with no errors attached and probably get a five.
Remember that teachers differ. Some grade more harshly than others.
How many assignments do I have to finish?
Every class has three assignments. There is one assignment per month, per class. You must do two assignments per class, and those two assignments (or, out of three, your two highest scores) must equal 6.
For example, if your first assignment earns you a four, you can sloppily make the second to get a minimum of 2. That will give you 6 points, meaning you pass the class.
If you are taking three classes, you will be turning in three assignments per month for at least two months out of the three possible months available in the quarter.
Assignment Multipliers
Assignments earn extra experience based on the difficulty of the class.
Beginner Classes earn 1x experience points (see front group chart).
Intermediate Classes earn 1.25x experience points (see front group chart).
Advanced Classes earn 1.5x experience points (see front group chart).
Expert Classes earn 1.75x experience points (see front group chart).
How do I earn a degree?
You must meet the requirements of the Division, which is detailed in the Divison section. You can earn as many degrees as you want.
How does my student increase in level?
When your student joins Otherworlde, they will be a Beginner. After an Otherworlde year goes by (three months, coinciding with openings), and the student has passed two of their classes, they may start taking the next level classes and are promoted to the next level. Students do not necessarily have to advance to the next level, but they cannot take classes above their level, regardless of how long they have been in the academy.
Please note that a student must take and complete at least one class per Otherworlde year to remain in good standing. If they do not pass at least one class, they will be docked experience points and may be removed from the academy.

Good evening, students! With the sincerest apologies for the delay, your final grades for the months of July, August, and September are here. Please check below to see how you did. If you passed the class... congratulations. If not, then you have failed and may either take the course again or other courses at the same level or below.

For those of you to which this applies, you are now eligible to take upper year courses that fall within your new class ranking. If you have issues with your grade, bring it up with your professor.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask any of the other staff (as I am quite lazy busy ((A/N: please feel free to reach out to any of the admins, including myself)) ).

Little question from me. If your character entered the school in the middle of the month, I assume that their assignments and homework won't start until the beginning of the next month. (otherwise I'd only have about ten days to finish two assignments. :'D)

I have a question!
I have an OC who is the descendant of a Canon character (she however is NOT a fandom OC). Is it okay to use her?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If they're descendant from a fandom character, isn't that by definition a fandom character?
Could you explain more?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
When I first developed my OC she was the descendant of a canon character, but over the years as I developed her I never really revisited that idea. I don't know if she still counts as an actual fandom OC or not, since she has a detailed backstory and her being related to the character isn't expanded on nor mentioned.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If it's not mentioned and it's not obvious by looking at the character or reading about her, then it's fine =3

I can probably do 3 classes, but I also have university. It might be a problem, but I'll figure something out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Quick question! If you are taking 3 classes, you have to submit 2 assignments per class (6 total) over a course of 3 months right? So like i can space the work load out over the 3 months, and I have to get it all done before the 3 months end in order to pass all my classes. The wording of how that works in the journal was messing with me so I just thought I'd ask ;w;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes :3 So during the first month, you would do three pieces of art/writing. Then in the second month, you do another three. And that means you pass the class. But you could also do:
Month 1: Class 1, Class 2
Month 2: Class 1, Class 3
Month 3: Class 2, Class 3
You know? As long as there's two in there, it's good :3

Okay, question time:
I read somewhere else that you can do min. 2 max. 3 classes; is one class e.g. Necromancy 101 or is it the whole Necromancy Beginner?
Because, if 1, you can somehow only take one "subject" per three months; but if 2, you can take two or three different "subjects" per year (e.g. Necromancy, Magical Linguistics and Potionmaking).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Minimum 1, maximum 3 :3
And yes, it's just one class per slot, not the whole beginner level section~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, min. 1, sorry :I
Okay, so I either deepen my knowledge on one subject, like Magical Linguistics, or I get little knowledge on two or three subjects?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup! Though the goal of the academy is to graduate with a degree, and that generally requires focusing on one department to get through all of its classes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay, thank you very much for the clarification. There's just two subjects I can't chose between!

Are you ever likely to get a course on magical entities/animals or entities that can use magic? I could teach that, I guess.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
We're planning a department on magical animals, but to teach a person must have already been here for a quarter and be approved by the mods of the group.

Okay. I don't think I would really be ready for such a big commitment anyway, I just wanted to know if it was going to happen.

I just don't really know if I would have enough time to.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
So how do you pass through those classes? Just by writing or drawing something? And, just because english is not my native language, have I read it correctly?
A student has to pass at least one class per Otherworlde year, which is three month? ^-^"
I'm a little bit confused by all of this.

Okay. I think I have five characters and their entire class schedules planned out. This is going to take YEARS. XD

Are we allowed to study one course for more than four years? I mean, can I, for example, be taking classes of one course non stop for five years without a break to earn a degree? Also, are we allowed to take a break from a course?

A lot of people don't take the rigorous four year lesson plan. Characters can stay as long as they want.

Are you able to do classes from two degrees if you plan on doing both degrees?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, though three max per "year"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm slightly confused- must you choose one of the classes in the categories (IE 101, 103, etc) or do you end up taking all of those classes eventually?
Do I need to pick from "Elementalism in Literature" or "Intro to Elementalism" or do I take all four options in the category at some point?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The suggested schedule at the end of a department tells you the classes you'd take for a degree. If you're not going for a degree then you could take any 100-level classes desired.
