Adding and/or Dropping Classes

Students may drop and/or add courses within the first five days of the start of the course without receiving a grade, charge, or a “W” on their transcript. The class schedule that is in place after the five-day drop/add period will be the class schedule charged out by the Business Office. No tuition refunds, other than government-mandated ones, will be paid after that date. Classes added beyond these deadlines require approval of the Dean of the College of Graduate and Professional Studies.

Students may withdraw from a course without receiving a grade until 60% of the length of the course has been completed, however, a “W” will appear on the transcript. After this period a student may not withdraw from a course unless there exist reasons clearly beyond the control of the student, and the student has petitioned the Dean for approval to withdraw.

Students who do not withdraw by the deadline will receive a grade for the course in accordance with their performance in the course. Students who stop attending a class without officially dropping will receive a failing (F) grade.
