Grinnell College Drop and Add Policies

Beginning Fall 2005, the Registrar’s Office implemented a new drop/add policy (as approved by the Committee on Academic Standing) for ˝ semester courses. Below is a summarization of the three drop/add policies.

Full semester courses: Registration Change Forms (add, drop without transcript entry, and audit changes) and S/D/F Forms for regular full-semester courses will be accepted by the Registrar’s Office during the first three weeks of classes. The deadline for Fall 2008 is Friday, September 19 and for Spring 2009, Friday, February 6. Registration Change Forms to withdraw from a course for “W” transcript entry are due in the Registrar’s Office by Friday, November 7 in the fall and Friday, April 3 in the spring.

˝ semester courses: Registration Change Forms (add, drop and audit changes) and S/D/F forms for ˝ semester courses (typically meeting the first 6-7 weeks of the semester or the second 6-7 weeks of the semester) will be accepted by the Registrar’s Office through the second Friday after the course begins. Specific course meeting information is included in the ‘NOTES” of the course listing in the Schedule of Courses, and online via the Pioneer Web schedule search. Registration Change Forms to withdraw from a course for “W” transcript entry are due in the Registrar’s Office by Friday of the fourth full week of the course.

Short courses: Courses less than a ˝ semester in length are considered to be a short course. Students will be required to add the course by the end of the first class meeting day, and drop by the end of the second class meeting day. S/D/F and audit options must also be declared by the end of the second class meeting day. Students may not withdraw (“W” grade) from a short course.
