To Add or Drop a Class

Late Add

After the add/drop period has ended, students wanting to enroll in a class that has already started must do so via the Late Add process. Students wanting to add a class and drop a class must do so at the same time to avoid financial penalty.

Cancelled Classes

The University reserves the right to cancel classes due to insufficient enrollment, or to make reassignment of instructors due to extraordinary circumstances. A full refund of enrollment fees will be automatically authorized for students who are enrolled in a class which has been cancelled. If you wish to use the refund (credit) from the cancelled class to pay the tuition for a replacement class you are “ADDING,” then you must process a “DROP” for the cancelled class at the same time you process an “ADD” for the replacement class. This must be done within the Add period for the term affected. Unless you are going to use the credit for another course, you do not have to “DROP” the cancelled course yourself. If you do nothing, we will drop the cancelled course from your schedule at the end of the second week of classes (or the proportional equivalent for shorter classes) and authorize a full refund (as appropriate).

Refunds

Partial or complete withdrawals require the student to drop each course via the online system at myWSU. Refunds will be issued by the Accounts Receivable Office according to the Refund Policy and based on the dates specified on the Accounts Receivable Important Dates webpage.
