"Add/Drop" is a time period (Registration Period III)in which students can either add or drop courses without an advisor signature via zagweb. All first-semester freshmen must complete a course authorization form with an advisor signature to add or drop a course.This time period is usually the first week of classes (check semester dates and deadlines for specific dates).

"Adding" a class is when a student adds a class. "Dropping" a course is when a student drops a class.

Please note: Dropping is different than withdrawing. Dropping is done within Registration Period III. Withdrawing from a course occurs after the add/drop period and must be done before the semester withdrawal deadline (usually after midterms). When a student withdraws from a course, a "W" grade is assigned for the course but does not effect the gpa.
