Drop/Add opens 4/8/26

  1. Drop/Add requests must be submitted at least 30 days in advance of the rotation.

    • Drop/Add requests are reviewed by the student’s career advisor, the coordinator for the course that is being dropped, and the coordinator for the course that is being added.

    • Requests that are submitted fewer than 30 days in advance must include a rationale and must be approved by the Associate Dean for Student Affairs. Late drop/add requests are only approved in extenuating circumstances, and only if there is still space in the requested elective and time for the course coordinator to arrange a rotation schedule.

    • A request to drop a course 5 days or fewer in advance of the start of the rotation period will only be approved under extraordinary circumstances, and a request to add a course 5 days or fewer in advance of the start of the rotation period will be denied.

  4. Even though you have submitted a request, it is not approved until you receive an email from the Office of Registrar. Your schedule will not be changed until then. Your advisor and the course coordinator must both approve your request, then I will review your schedule and make changes as appropriate. Please make sure to review the requirements for the fourth year (Graduation and Track Requirements) to make sure your new schedule will be in compliance. When reviewing drop/add requests, I will take your entire schedule into consideration. For example, you will not be permitted to drop a required course unless you have submitted a request to add it in a different period. You may also view the Fourth Year Academic Calendar to determine the dates for each period.
    Drop/add closes 01/31/27.

  5. Electives Open/Closed Report - Please refer to this report when looking for courses that might have availability. This report will be updated on a weekly basis and does not reflect any pending requests still in the system. This report is meant to serve as a guideline.
