Spring Semester 2013 Drops at 50%, Spring Semester 2013 and Spring Term 3 Class Withdrawals, and Spring Term 4 Adds, Drops and Withdrawals:
The Registrar's Office and Student Resource Center are committed to providing a registration experience that is easy, accessible and accurate. System issues are requiring us to use paper forms for Fall Semester/Spring Semester/Summer Session Drops at 50%, Fall Semester/Spring Semester/Summer Session Class Withdrawals, as well as all Fall Term 2/Spring Term 4/Summer Term 6 scheduling requests (Class Adds, Drops and Withdrawals). After the Last Day to Add and Drop at 100% Refund for Fall Semester/Spring Semester/Summer Session, you must submit the appropriate Schedule Change Form to process the scheduling changes mentioned above. While we encourage you to discuss registration matters with your advisor, advisor and instructor signature(s) are not required on these forms (unless specified).
Full and Waitlisted Spring 2013 Classes:
There are 2 different procedures to deal with full and waitlisted classes for the 2 different weeks of the Add period.
January 14 through January 21: As a space opens in a class due to a student drop, the next student on the waitlist will be moved in automatically and will receive an email on his/her HNU account. The same process applies if a professor decides to raise the cap on a class.
January 22-28: Waitlist moves will be done only at the instructor's discretion in week 2. You need to fill out a Schedule Change Form: Special Circumstances, get it signed by the instructor, and submit it to the Student Resource Center by Monday, January 28.
You should attend the class/es you hope to add while you wait to see if space opens up.
Note: Waitlists for Term 3 classes will be done via automatic moves only
