Dropping and Adding Courses

Changes in schedule may be made on the website or by the student in the Registrar’s Office to safeguard the accuracy of the student’s permanent record. Courses added during the second week of classes during the Fall and Spring semesters require both the advisor’s and the instructor’s signature. Courses may not be added after the second week of classes in the Fall and Spring semesters. Courses may not be added after the first day of class during Summer sessions.

A student who desires to make any change in his/her schedule must complete a Drop/Add form which is available in the Registrar’s Office. The student must then have the completed Drop/Add form signed by his or her advisor, by another faculty member in the department, or by Student Academic Support Services staff as evidence that possible alternatives and consequences were discussed.

The completed Drop/Add form must be taken to the Registrar’s Office for processing. Students who complete the desired change on the website are strongly advised to first secure the approval of their advisor. It should be noted that changes in full-time or part-time status may affect financial aid, Veteran’s benefits, or athletic eligibility.
