Dropping a Course in the Current Quarter

Current Quarter Drop

Each quarter, you may add and drop classes with no restrictions until the end of the second week of the quarter (the Unrestricted Drop period). After that, you may drop one class between Week 3 to the last day of instruction (the Late Course Drop period) using Register.UW. To drop more than one class during the Late Course Drop period, use the Adviser-Assisted Drop Process. Review the tuition forfeiture policy when considering dropping as you may not get all of your tuition back.
