Academics and Extracurriculars

 

classes&extracurriculars In order to keep things realistic, there are rules limiting the number of classes, extracurriculars, and positions of authority a student can have. These limits are maximums -- your character is welcome to be as unremarkable as you'd like. We are looking for students who run the gamut of academic prowess and extracurricular activity. .limits OWL students: 13 activities (classes + clubs + quidditch or authority + workstudy) All OWL students are required to take core classes and free to take as many electives as they can feasibly handle. In game canon, there are no class conflicts, though there is a gender restriction for duelling (males only) and practical magic (girls only). NEWT students: 9 activities (classes + clubs + quidditch or authority + workstudy) All NEWT students are restricted to classes that their OWL scores permit them to be in. The minimum number of allowed classes is two and the maximum is six (in addition to duelling or practical magic, which have no OWL or NEWT). Note that duelling and practical magic are mandatory classes for students of all years. .classes CORE Astronomy Charms Defence Against the Dark Arts Duelling -- no OWL, males only Herbology History of magic Potions Practical magic -- no OWL, females only Transfiguration ELECTIVES Ancient Runes Arithmancy Care of Magical Creatures Divination Flying & quidditch Healing Muggle tolerance .clubs Clubs are social groups with an emphasis on various interests. Each club has varying activities and demands, which are up to the supervising professors. Note that the Slug Club must be held prior to applications with a mod approved reason. Charms Chess Choir & theatre Duelling Future mothers Gobstones Wireless Slug club .quidditch Quidditch is one of the most intensive extracurriculars because of the time and stress involved. Each house has the following team structure: 1 seeker 1 keeper 2 beaters 3 chasers 1 captain (who also holds a position) 2 reserve members .workstudy The workstudy programme was designed to give students the chance to experience real world responsibilities at Hogwarts by aiding or accompanying school employees with their daily activities. Caretakers Gamekeepers Healers Librarians Professors .authority Student authority is one of the fundamental responsibilities that keep Hogwarts running smoothly. Students with authority are held to certain standards that they must abide by or they will be stripped of their rank. Prefects Head boy & girl
