Change of Schedule means adding a course or dropping
a course from the schedule you obtained through CASPER or Late
Registration. (If you have not paid fees for classes, follow the procedures
for Late Registration.) Add/drop practice varies among instructors,
departments and colleges. You should check the syllabus or inquire about
the practice in each of your courses. Touch-tone registration availability
is indicated as “Phone Reg” on the Web Schedule (see Casper.NET).
ADDING A COURSE
Students who paid for CASPER who want additional units may add
courses by following the instructions on the Worksheet. The maximum
units available during CASPER Plus without petition is 21. If
you wish to take more than 21 units, obtain a Petition for Excess Units
at the Admissions and Records Counter.

the Registrar's Office will add the course. |
DROPPING A COURSE
Drop courses through the second week of the semester on CASPER or
CasperWeb. You don’t need signatures, but you must call or
drop on-line. There is no such thing as an automatic drop. Instructors
have the authority to drop students, but they are not required to do
so. Even if your instructor asks you to leave the class, the drop must
be entered on CASPER. Failure to drop a course according to University
policy is likely to result in the assignment of a failing grade of “WU”
or “F” in that course. If you are uncertain which classes
you are enrolled in, call CASPER, visit a Casper.NET kiosk, log on to
CasperWeb
or check with the Admissions and Records Counter.
About Money: If you have not paid your semester registration
fees in full, dropping units or withdrawing from the semester Does
Not Cancel the Amount you still owe. You should take this fact
into consideration in making your decision. If circumstances are such
that you must drop anyway, please visit the Student Financial Services
Center (LSN-1001, 278-6736) to discuss your outstanding fees.
