• The first two weeks of the semester is called the “Change of Program Period” because students may add and drop classes in SSOL.
  • You should not need to ADD any more classes after the end of the “Change of Program Period.” 
  • Refer to the Academic Calendar for add/drop and other deadlines.
    • No classes may be dropped after the LAST DAY TO DROP.  There are no exceptions. 
      • Classes dropped before the LAST DAY TO DROP will not appear on the transcript. 
      • Dropping a class is a two-step process. You will receive an email to confirm. 
      • Refer to the Post Add/Drop Tool.
      • Check SSOL to make sure class has been officially dropped. 
    • No classes may be changed to R or Pass/Fail after the DEADLINE to change to PASS/FAIL or R.
  • Half- Semester Courses
    • The deadlines for half- semester courses are different, to remain in proportion to the deadlines for full-semester courses.
      • Half-semester courses must be dropped within the first two weeks.
      • The deadline for Pass/Fail or for R credit is the first day of the fifth week. (Remember that core classes may not be taken for Pass/Fail or R credit.  Nor may they be taken over to receive a higher grade.)
    • Students who stop attending a course without officially dropping will be assigned a grade.
