Changes in Program of Study

The Add/Drop period, during which degree candidates may make changes to their class schedules, runs through the first five days of classes. Only students who have completed the first-year curriculum may make changes to their class schedule during the Add/Drop period. After the Add/Drop period, students may add or drop courses only with the written approval of the instructor, the dean of students, and the director of the Records Office. Unless the dean of students directs otherwise due to extraordinary circumstances, any drop after the Add/Drop period will be reflected as a No Credit (NC) on the student’s transcript. Under no circumstances may a student drop a course after the last day of classes in any semester. Under no circumstances may a student add a course or credits to a course for which the student is registered after the Friday of the eleventh week of class in the fall or spring semester or the fifth week of class in the summer session. A student is not permitted to drop a course or credits from a course for which the student is registered after the Friday of the eleventh week of class unless the dean of students certifies that extraordinary events warrant doing so.
