Late Registration - Need Added to Course

IMPORTANT:

Only proceed if you are seeking to be added a course AND we are past the ADD deadline. If you are seeking to be added to a CLOSED course (no remaining seats left in course) you will also need to submit a Registration Action Form (RAF) to request a 'CLOSED' override.

Explain the extenuating circumstance(s) for adding the course after the published deadline

Drop or Withdrawal from Course

IMPORTANT:

Please review the Tuition Refund Schedule to see when the drop/withdrawal deadlines are for your course's part-of-term.

DROP If you are a requesting a DROP (w/ refund) after the drop deadline has passed, you will need to provide significant justification for the exception (subject to instructor/department approval) to be dropped--if your drop request is denied, you can still withdraw yourself from the course if we are still within the withdrawal period.

WITHDRAWAL If you are requesting to withdraw from a course after the withdrawal deadline for your part of term, you will also need to provide justification for the late withdrawal.

Please note that either DROP or WITHDRAWAL petition requests submitted before deadlines will be summarily rejected by the registrar and you will be directed to make those adjustments on your own in either Trailhead or GEODE.
