The specific dates to add, modify or drop a course are available from your academic advisor. You may also find the information by clicking on the link for "Academic Calendars" to the right (then look for "Schedule Revision" for the specific academic term).

The following general guidance applies to 16-week courses.

A course can be added or modified with your advisor’s signature, provided there is space in the course, during the first week of the semester. A course may be added or modified with the signature of your advisor and the class instructor during the second, third, and fourth weeks of the semester. The signature of your advisor, the class instructor, and the head of the department in which the course is listed, are required to add or modify a course during the fifth through tenth weeks of the semester.

A course may be dropped during the first two weeks of the semester without the course being recorded. The signature of your advisor is required. Courses may be dropped during the third and fourth weeks of the semester with only the signature of your advisor. A grade of “W” is recorded. A course dropped during the fifth through tenth weeks of the semester requires the signature of your advisor and instructor. The instructor must indicate whether you are passing or failing the course. Grades of “W,” “WF,” or “WN” will be recorded. Students with a semester classification of 0, 1, or 2 do not need the instructor’s signature. Their grades will be “W.”
