Changes in Registration
Current students can make changes to their registration online through SOS until the first day of the term. Students who wish to add a course during the first week of the term or in some way change their class schedule must secure permission through the Registrar’s Office.
Adding a Course
Students may add a course at any time through the fifth class day of a term or before the second meeting of a night or weekend class. ECollege classes can be added until two days after eCollege classes begin. See the Academic Calendar for dates.

Dropping a Course
- Sixteen-week term: A student may drop a class through the twelfth week of a regular semester.
- Eight-week term: A student may drop a class through the sixth week of an eight-week term.
- Interim classes: A student may drop an interim class through three-fourths of the length of the class.
A “W” grade is recorded on the student’s permanent record if the drop occurs after the term begins.
Students may drop individual courses from their schedules any time up to the official last day to drop. After this time, students must remain enrolled in scheduled classes. Failure to attend class once registered does not cancel registration or tuition and fees owed for any class or classes. Failure to change registration status will result in a grade of “F” recorded on the permanent record.
A change in registration is not official until it is received by the Records and Registration Office. All deadlines regarding changes are the responsibility of the student to see that all forms reach that office and they carry signatures as necessary.
Adding and Dropping Courses
Courses dropped and added simultaneously which have the same number of credit hours will be treated as an even exchange of tuition and fees during the refund period of each semester or term. Changes in course sections will be allowed only by retaining the same instructor and with the permission of that instructor. Course level changes as recommended by the instructor may also be permitted. Drop forms and add forms can be obtained from the Records and Registration Office.
