Registration
Dropping and Adding Classes
Before dropping a class, each student should discuss options with their academic advisor as dropping a class should only be done when truly necessary and should be considered along with adding a different class to stay on track to graduate. To drop a course and make a successful transition into another class, students are encouraged to drop and add before classes begin though the online drop and add process available through the first week of classes for major semesters. Students who drop before or during the first week of classes will receive no grade and pay no late drop fees. Note: There is a University College policy restricting the number of drops for a University College students. If you are a University College student, please seek the advice of your advisor.
Students wishing to add a course after the start of the term should do so as close to the start of the semester as possible, as instructors may refuse students admission into classes if they believe that students have already missed too much work in the new class.
During summer school, students should drop and add during the first three days of classes.
During the first four weeks of regular semesters, partial refunds are given for dropped courses and depending on the time of year, signatures of advisors and instructors are needed.
For complete information on drop/ add procedures and deadlines visit the Student Central website on drop and add (https://studentcentral.iupui.edu/register/drop-add/index.html) along with the Academic Calendar for that term (https://studentcentral.iupui.edu/calendars/official-calendar.html).
Students who choose to withdraw from a semester must officially drop all classes. Failing to attend class does not mean a student has dropped a class but rather will result in an F in the course(s). Failing to pay for the course(s), once registered, will result in both an F and a bill for the course.
