Add Policy
Students are allowed to add classes up to and including the seventh (7th) calendar day of the semester (prorated for alternative semester lengths -see chart below), if space is available. Students who add classes are subject to the full attendance policy and are held responsible for all course materials and assignments. Before adding a class students should consult with the instructor to determine the extent of make-up work necessary for success in the class. A course may be added after the seventh (7th) calendar day of the semester (prorated for alternative semester lengths, see chart below) only with the permission of the instructor*.
Alternative Semester Chart (If Day 2, 3, 4, 5, or 7 falls on a weekend or holiday, then that day will be the first business day following the weekend or holiday.)
| Semester Length | Add Period |
|---|---|
| 15-16 weeks | Day 1-7 |
| 12 weeks | Day 1-5 |
| 8 weeks | Day 1-4 |
| 6 weeks | Day 1-3 |
| 4 weeks | Day 1-2 |
| 2 weeks or less | Day 1 only |
Example: If class started on Thursday, but the semester started on Monday, then Day 1 is that Monday, not Thursday.
Exceptions to Add Policy
- Lab Classes: If the semester has started, a student may add a class with a lab component only if the first class has not been missed. Once the first class has been missed, the student may add only with the permission of the instructor* (and advisor if matriculated). Examples of lab classes are, but not limited to: lab science, computer technologies, information systems technology and drawing. Final decisions of what is considered a lab class rest with Academic Affairs.
*The program chair or program coordinator may sign the add form if the instructor is unavailable.
