Change of Registration (Add/Drops)

 

Registering for Classes

Summer 2013 Procedure:

Before classes begin, students may add open classes without charge or approval. However, after the wait list period ends students wishing to add a class must obtain instructor and department approval on an ADD Card and pay the $10 Add Fee. The ADD Card may be obtained at One Stop. Add Cards must be completed and submitted to One Stop by the ‘Last Day to Add Classes’ noted in the Student Timetable. Students should finalize the process through One Stop to pay for any additional credit.

NEW Procedure Beginning Fall 2013 :

• Before classes begin, students may add open classes or be placed on a wait list for closed classes without charge or approval.

• Online registration through UVLink will be available through the ‘Last Day to Add Classes’ noted in the Student Timetable.

• Beginning Fall Semester 2013 paper Add Cards will no longer be used .

• After the wait list period ends, students wanting to add a class late will be required to obtain instructor and department approval and pay a $10 late registration fee for each class added late .

• Students will need to contact the instructor and make a request to add the class.

• If the instructor approves, they will email their approval to the appropriate department.

• Students should allow up to two business days for the override approval to be in place.

• Once the override has been entered, students may register online through UVLink. (This process will not override any unmet prerequisites or classroom limits for that course.)

• After the 'Last Day to Add', adding a class will only be by exception, approved by the department that offers the course.

• A $30 late registration fee will be charged for each course added by exception.

• The last day to drop a course and receive a 100% refund (any refund) will align with the ‘Last Day to Add’. After this date students will receive a "W" grade for withdrawn classes and will be charged the full cost of tuition and fees.

Dropping Classes

• To drop a class without a "W" grade (not show on official transcript), students must initiate the process through the UVLink online registration system before the ‘Last Day to Drop’ deadline date noted in the Student Timetable.

• If dropping all classes students will need to go through the Leave of Absence process in UVLink.

Withdrawing Classes

• After the ‘Last Day to Drop’ noted in the Student Timetable, students will receive a "W" grade when withdrawing from classes.

• Classes may be withdrawn through the ‘Last Day to Withdraw/Audit’ noted in the Student Timetable.

• If withdrawing from all classes, students will need to go through the Leave of Absence process in UVLink.

• After the ‘Last Day to Withdraw’ noted in the Student Timetable, students will only be able to withdraw from classes for extenuating circumstances approved by a department chair. Students may obtain a Withdrawal Exception Form from the department advisor of their major. (Follow the instructions on the Withdrawal Exception Form.)

The semester, blocks and sessions have various dates and deadlines, see the Student Timetable for specific information.
