First-Day Administrative Drop Policy for all Semester Long Courses - Students who register prior to the first day of class are expected to attend the first meeting of each course. The registration will be forfeited to provide space for other students if the student does not attend the first meeting. In extenuating circumstances where the first day of attendance is not possible, the instructor or department chair may exempt the student from the automatic administrative drop policy. Students need to verify that they have been administratively dropped by examining their class schedule two weeks after the beginning of the term. The administrative drop policy is NOT in effect during Summer College or if you register after classes have started.
