Find out how to add a class.

1.  Before classes begin through Week 2
   1. To add a class that's open, follow the regular enrollment procedure in WebReg. If you wish to switch sections of course, it is considered a drop and add transaction, all drop/ add/ change deadlines apply. Petitions are required for all adds after second week (even when adding a different section within a course).
   2. To add a class that's full, add your name to the wait list via WebReg, and follow the wait list procedures.
   3. Graduate students, check with the department, as advisor approval may be required for adding the class.

Note: The official university deadline to add classes (including Special Studies classes) is Friday of Week 2. Requests to add classes after Week 2 are only considered under extraordinary circumstances and require a petition, appropriate documentation, and approval from the academic department, college, Graduate Studies, and the Committee of Educational Policy.

If you are a Summer Session student, the deadline to add a class is the end of Week 1. For dates and information on Summer Session 3, see the Summer Session calendar. If you wish to switch sections of course, it is considered a drop and add transaction, all drop/ add/ change deadlines apply. Petitions are required for all adds after the add deadline (even when adding a different section within a course).
