Add/Drop Policy

  • Students may add/drop course(s) within the first 10 working days of the semester without any administrative consequence. No instructor signature is required. However, the university encourages students to meet with the instructor or academic advisor to evaluate whether dropping a course is the best course of action

• Add or drop AFTER the first 10 working days and BEFORE the last 10 working days of the semester (Late add/drop)

  • A late fee will be charged for a late add/drop.

  • A late add/drop requires the acceptance and signature of the professor teaching the course as well as the Program Director.

  • A late drop will appear on transcripts as a “W”. In addition, the student will need to retake the course.

• Dropping a class within the last 10 working days of the semester 

  • Only done in special circumstances and need permission from the Program Director

• Administrative Withdrawal

  • If a student is absent or stops showing up to classes, an instructor or administrator may withdraw a student from the course. It is the responsibility of the student to contact their instructor to notify him/her about any absence. Yet, it is at the discretion of a professor to determine whether the absence can be excused. If a student is administratively withdrawn, they will receive an F and will have to retake the course.
