Course Changes After Registration/Add–Drop
- The last day in a term when students may add a course to their program is indicated in the semester schedule.
- Changes from “credit” to “audit” status or from “audit” to “credit” status and changes from “grade” to “pass/fail” or “pass/fail” to “grade” must be made by the last day indicated in the semester schedule.
- To withdraw from any course after the drop period, a student must obtain approval of the advisor and the instructor of the course. Merely ceasing attendance in any course does not constitute withdrawal. An unauthorized withdrawal results in a failure of the course.
A student may withdraw from a course during the first 12 weeks of the semester (or for courses of shorter duration, during the first 75% of the course dates) after obtaining approval of the advisor and the instructor of the course. For authorized withdrawal, a grade of “W” is indicated on the record. Courses from which the student withdraws within the add/drop period of a term will not be entered on the permanent record. Courses from which the student withdraws after the 12th week will be recorded as “F.” Withdrawal forms are available at the Office of the Registrar.
