Adding a Course

Semester-Based Courses

A student may add a course during the first ten instructional days of a term. When students are allowed to add a class within the designated add period, the instructor must reasonably accommodate them in making up work they have missed.

For admission to a class after the designated "Add" period, a student needs the consent of the departmental representative in charge of the course who may require the student to pass an examination in the work already covered by the class or to present other satisfactory evidence of ability to proceed with the class.

How to add a course:

• Students admitted to a degree program may add a course within the first ten days of a regular term by using the Student Self-Service website.
• After that period, and for all students not admitted to a degree program, the procedure for adding is to use the Change of Status form. The effective date and time of the requested add is determined by when the completed form is received in our office.
