Students are responsible for their class schedule and meeting registration deadlines. It is important to verify any changes made to your schedule by you, or office staff, have been done correctly.

The deadlines apply to courses that meet for the full term. Contact the Registrar's Office for information on the deadlines for courses that meet during the first session or second session of the term.  Students can also contact the Registrar's Office for assistance with making changes to their schedule.
