Adding and Dropping Classes 

Graduate students may add or drop classes without OGS approval only through the second week of the quarter. All courses added after the second week require departmental and OGS approval; students will be assessed a fee for each added course. OGS approval is also required to drop a class after the end of the second week; approval by department may also be required.

Graduate students may not use TritonLink after the end of the second week of the quarter.

A student adding a class after the end of the fourth week of the quarter must present the add/drop card and a letter from the instructor to OGS on departmental letterhead. The letter must confirm that the student has either been in the class for the full quarter or will complete a full quarter's coursework. Late enrollment after the second week of the quarter also requires instructor signature(s) on the enrollment form for each class.
