Spring Semester 2007 - 2008

Drop / Add

After initially registering for classes, you are free to adjust your schedule by adding and dropping courses whenever eNRoll is available.

Course Adds

The deadline for adding courses is Midnight, Tuesday, January 22, 2008. Any adds after this point, including mini-courses, require the written permission of the instructor and the dean's office or advising center of your college. Such transactions must be processed in person at Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South. Late adds are by exception only. There is no guarantee that such exception will be granted. Financial aid recipients who process late course adds are encouraged to contact the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid as this could impact financial aid awards.

Multiple registrations for the same course in a single semester can only be done in person at Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South.

“Override Authorization Forms” must be processed at Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South. This form is used to override maximum credit hours, course credit hours, or grade type.

"Schedule Adjustment Forms” are also processed at Registration and Records. Written permission from the academic department office or instructor is always required to enter a closed course.

Changing Credits

You are free to change the number of credits on a variable credit course through eNRoll until midnight, January 22, 2008.  After that date, the changes must be processed in person at Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South and may require special permission from your college.

Course Drops

Drops for the Second Semester may be processed through midnight, January 22, 2008 for a full tuition refund. However, courses dropped January 23 - 25, 2008 will be subject to the 25% tuition charge.   Courses dropped on eNRoll through midnight, January 25, 2008 will be removed from the student's transcript record.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS:   Dropping below full-time status without prior approval of International Affairs can have serious consequences and may affect your permission to remain in the USA. NOTE: See Tuition and Fees.

Failure to attend classes does not constitute proper notification of a drop and you will continue to be responsible for the course or courses on your schedule until you formally drop the class. A drop becomes effective for tuition and grade purposes on the date the transaction is processed through eNRoll, or the “Schedule Adjustment Form ” is processed with Registration and Records. NOTE: See Tuition and Fees.

Students (undergraduate and graduate) may withdraw from individual classes or from all classes, regardless of the circumstances, before the 3/4 point of the term, Friday, April 11, 2008. A "W" grade will automatically be noted on the transcript for these courses. Any drops or withdrawals after the 3/4 point of the term are only granted for extraordinary circumstances by petition.  Undergraduate students should contact their college dean's office to obtain the "Petition for Late Withdrawal" form.  Graduate students should contact Graduate Studies, 1100 Seaton Hall, to obtain the petition form.

Deadlines for mini-courses (courses less than a full semester in length) are prorated. Contact Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South, for specific dates for adding, dropping, and the withdrawl ("W") periods for mini-courses.

Note: If a student is found to have been academically dishonest in a course and drops the course, the instructor reserves the right to add the student's name to the Final Grade Roster and submit a final grade. In this case, the student will be held accountable for the full tuition for the course.

Withdrawals

Dropping all of the classes you are enrolled in for a term after the term begins constitutes a withdrawal. To withdraw from all courses, access eNRoll, drop all of your classes or process a “Cancellation/Withdrawal Form” at Registration and Records, 107 Canfield Administration Building South. Law and Dental students wishing to withdraw or drop classes should make their requests to their college dean's office. No withdrawals are permitted after the three-quarter point of the term. NOTE: See Withdrawal from the University.

If, after the last day to add classes in each term, you decide to drop a course or courses and/or withdraw from the University, it is recommended that you contact the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid, 17 Canfield Administration Building South, (402) 472-2030, before you act to discuss the possible need for repayment of federal aid and your eligibility for subsequent aid in future semesters.

Only in the case of timely notification (within the term the event occurred or immediately thereafter) of your unexpected hospitalization, the death of a member of your immediate family living in your household, or a University error may the effective date of the drop of a course or withdrawal be adjusted to the occurrence of the event. Proper documentation and explanation in writing will be required to determine the adjusted effective date.
