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.
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. If a student drops a course within the add/drop period of a term, the course will not appear on the permanent academic record. If a student withdraws from a course after the drop period, a 'W' will appear on the permanent academic record. Students are not allowed to withdraw from individual courses after the first 12 weeks of the semester have passed.
