Course Adjustment Procedures

Add/Drop

During the Add/Drop period, as posted on the academic calendar, a student may drop a course and the course will not appear on the student's transcript. All drop requests must be made in writing to the Assistant Dean of the Graduate School or by completing and submitting the Course Adjustment form.

For refund policies and rules please refer to the Tuition Refund Policy.

Withdrawal from a Course

After the Add/Drop period, as posted on the academic calendar, and up until the end of regularly scheduled classes, a student may request a withdrawal from a course. All withdrawal requests must be made in writing to the Assistant Dean of the Graduate School or by completing the Course Adjustment form. When such a request is made, the student will receive a grade of "W" on his or her transcript, indicating that a withdrawal was granted prior to the end of the course. A grade of "W" bears no academic penalty.
