Full-time undergraduate study is defined as 12 credits per term. Full-time graduate study is defined as 9 credits per term. Such status is required for most forms of financial aid and for international students on F-1 or J-1 visas. However, undergraduates students not enrolled in a five-year plan will be billed for a reduced tuition charge if taking fewer than 12 credits; reduced tuition charges could have an impact on financial aid eligibility. Questions regarding such impact should be directed to the Student Service Center. On-Line Adds and Drops (or paper Change of Enrollment Forms) will be permitted/processed through the end of the Add/Drop period with no fees assessed. After that date, Add/Drops are not permitted via Student Web Self Services and a Late Change of Enrollment fee will be assessed for each Change of Enrollment Form you submit, except withdrawals (resulting in a grade of W).REMINDER: if you have a financial hold, no Change of Enrollment Forms will be processed unless you have signed permission from Student Financial Services. If not resolved by the end of the Add/Drop period, Student Financial Services will assess the Late Change of Enrollment Fee. After end of the Add/Drop period, withdrawals are permitted, but drops are not. If you withdraw from a course, a grade of "W" will be recorded on your academic record and will be counted as part of your regular course load for all billing purposes, including overloads. After end of the Add/Drop period and before the Last Day to Withdraw without Signatures, you must have your instructor's approval to add a course. After the Last Day to Withdraw without Signatures, any registration change, including withdrawals, must be approved and signed by the instructor, your advisor (Graduate Students), and The Office of Undergraduate Academic (Undergraduates) or The Office of Graduate Studies (Graduate Students).
