Request to Add Classes After Census Date

Students are responsible for registering for classes by the published enrollment deadlines found on the Academic Calendar. Requests to add classes after the quarterly Census Date are considered only through a formal review process and are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Submitting a request does not guarantee approval.

This process is available only for the current quarter and is intended for extenuating circumstances that prevented on-time enrollment.

Before You Submit a Request:

• Review the Academic Calendar and registration deadlines.
• Obtain instructor permission (Employee Directory).
• Be prepared to explain why you were unable to enroll by the published deadline.
• Connect with your advisor and funding source.
• You may also be subject to the Late Registration fee. Financial aid does not cover late registration fees and will not be adjusted for credits added after the census date.
• You are responsible for any remaining tuition balance if Late Registration is approved.
• You are responsible for making up missed coursework with your instructor. Instructors are not required to accept or grade late work submissions and could affect your final grade.
• Be prepared to make a same day payment for all tuition and fees if Late Registration is approved.
• You understand and accept any impact on your academic record and confirm that all information provided is accurate.
