Drop/Add

Drop/Add is the period during which students may adjust their schedule by adding and dropping courses. Drop/Add dates are listed in the Academic Calendar.

Once the Drop/Add deadline has passed, a student may not make any adjustments to his/her course schedule unless there is an error in the schedule. During the fall and spring semesters, the student has one week after the Drop/Add deadline to contact his/her academic dean and have the error corrected by the Office of the University Registrar. All schedule corrections are the responsibility of the individual student, not his/her instructors.

Information on the process by which students can withdraw from a course after the Drop/Add deadline is provided in the appropriate School Bulletin.

Waiting List and Permission Numbers

Students are able to place themselves on a waiting list via ACES-Web if a course has reached maximum enrollment. After the first week of classes in the fall and spring semesters all waiting lists are erased. In order to register for a course after the first week of class, students must first obtain a permission number from the course instructor.

Permission numbers are automatically generated for each course and are available to the instructor for distribution to students via STORM.
