Adding Courses

Adding Courses

Students may add classes up through the 15th day of the semester (or 20 percent of the term for summer or less than full term classes). After the fifth day of classes, any additions to the original registration must: (1) be recorded on an official Registrations Options Form, and (2) include the instructor’s signature. In addition to the Registrar’s Office, Registration Options Forms may be taken to an academic advisor, who may electronically authorize a student to register for a course. Deadlines as outlined in the Registration Calendar  must be observed.

Courses may be added for credit or audit. An instructor’s signature is required beginning the second week of the semester (sixth day of classes) during fall and spring semesters, and other dates as noted in the Registration Calendar . Students may not add into a full class at any time without an instructor’s signature. An instructor should not sign a blank Registrations Options Form, but should ensure that the proper course information (e.g., CRN, course prefix, course number, etc.) is present before signing and dating the form. The Registrar’s Office will not process any Registrations Options Form that is not dated, or for which the signature date is older than three business days. Advisors who have access to authorize students into full classes will follow the same guidelines as the Registrar’s Office. Specific deadlines for adding courses may be found in the Registration Calendar . All requests for audit registration must be approved by the instructor and must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar, Taggart Student Center 246.
