Changing Your Schedule
Dropping and Adding Classes
You may change your schedule by adding and dropping classes. If you are eligible for web registration, you may add and drop through CampusCruiser/WebAdvisor, prior to the start of the term. After the term begins, changes to your schedule must be made in person. If the term has begun or if you are ineligible for web registration, you must turn in a drop/add form to Chambers Hall. For developmental course withdrawal, a signature is required from your curriculum chairperson, the dean of your division, an academic advisor, or a faculty advisor. All forms must be submitted to Chambers Hall.
Summer 2008 classes dropped after 4:30 p.m. on the last business day prior to the start of the summer session are subject to tuition and fee forfeiture. Fall 2008 classes dropped after 4:30 p.m. on Friday, August 29, are subject to tuition and fee forfeiture. See the Refund Policy below for details.
Failure to attend the class or verbal notification to the instructor does not constitute official withdrawal.
Full-time students who are withdrawing from all of their classes must go to the Department of Counseling and Career Services in Edison Hall, Room 100. If you plan to return, we advise that you apply for a leave of absence.
