Add/Drop Policy

Registration Changes Changes in course registration may be made without penalty up through end of the second week of class in any term. For courses offered during the Summer, Summer Institute, and Winter Intersession terms, course-specific add/drop deadlines will apply. Students must obtain the instructor's permission for each course added to their official registration during the add/drop period. It is the instructor's prerogative to deny a student's request to add a class during the add/drop period. The advisor's approval is the only one required for a student dropping a course during the prescribed add/drop period.

Degree seeking students may add or drop courses during the add/drop period via ISIS Self Service.

Special Students Limited must use the add/drop form which is available in the Student Affairs Suite or accessible online on the Records and Registration home page under FORMS.

After the add/drop period has ended, students may continue to make changes, except changes to and from Audit, up through the end of the 6th week of class, with the following penalties:

• Dropped courses will result in a "W" (Withdrawn) on the transcript.
• A $50 late change fee will be charged for all changes (except for withdrawals).
• There is no tuition refund for withdrawn courses.

NO CHANGES ARE PERMITTED THE LAST TWO WEEKS OF ANY TERM

Add/Drop dates can be found on the Academic Calendar.
