ADDING & DROPPING CLASSES

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:

• Complete a change in class schedule/add form with an academic advisor.
• Obtain the signature of the Financial Aid Office. All students must obtain this signature.
• Take the completed add form to the Business Office. There is no transaction fee to be paid for a add; however, the process is not complete until the form is turned into the Business Office.

The Office of the Registrar will process the completed adds on a daily basis.

Dropping a Class

When a student is no longer in attendance in a given class, the student must officially drop the class within the prescribed time allowed for dropping as designated in the class schedule. Students who stop attending a class and fail to follow the procedures listed below will receive an "F" as their final grade in the course. It is the student's responsibility to drop; however, upon persistent non-attendance and no proper communication, the instructor may administratively drop the student from the class. To drop a class the student must:

• Complete a change in class schedule/drop form with an academic advisor.
• Obtain the signature of the Financial Aid Office. All students must obtain this signature.
• Take the completed drop form to the Business Office. The transaction is not complete until proper receipt and payment is made to the Business Office.

The Office of the Registrar will process the completed drops on a daily basis.

If a student determines that withdrawing is the appropriate course of action, the student must officially withdraw within the prescribed time allowed for withdrawal as designated in the class schedule. Students who stop attending classes and fail to follow the prescribed procedures for withdrawal will receive an "F" for each class. It is the student's responsibility to withdraw.
