Schedule Changes to Registration

A student’s class schedule may be changed subject to the written approval of the advisor within the prescribed time designated in the published class schedule.

Courses may be added until the last day of late registration as designated in the published class schedule. Courses that are dropped through the 11^th class day for fall and spring semesters (5^th day for summer sessions) are not recorded on the student’s permanent transcript record. After the 11^th day, students who drop from class will receive a grade of “W” (withdrawn). The specific date for each semester/term is published in the class schedule and the academic calendar.

Adding a Class. For a defined period of time following regular registration each semester, a student may add classes. A student who attends a class without officially registering or following prescribed procedures for adding a class will not receive credit for that class.

To add a class, the student must:

Obtain the signature of the Financial Aid Office. All students must obtain this signature.
