Drop/Add Information

1.  Check your current registration on the SIS: https://www.stolaf.edu/sis/login.cfm  

  • It is extremely important that all students be officially registered for all courses you are attending. Under no circumstances may a student simply sit in on a course without being officially registered either for credit or as an auditor.
  • If you are not accurately registered now, you must complete the drop/add process.

2.  Drops/Adds:

  • Policy of the College (including policy on the S/U option)*: http://www.stolaf.edu/catalog/1112/academicregs/coursereg.html
  • Calendar of deadlines: http://www.stolaf.edu/offices/registrar/2011-2012calendar.pdf
  • To drop/add a course or to make a change in the grading option (graded vs. S/U):
    1. The signature of the faculty member is required for all drops/adds;
    2. It is a good idea to consult your advisor regarding any changes, even though an advisor's signature is not required on the drop/add slip (except first semester for first-year students).  You may save yourself the grief/cost of a bad choice.  You are always welcome to contact Mary Cisar (cisar@stolaf.edu) or Cheryl LaCroix in the Academic Advising Center (lacroix@stolaf.edu) with questions, too.
    3. Pick up a drop/add slip at the Registrar's Office service window (Tomson Hall, level 1);
    4. Complete it in full;
    5. Have it signed by the instructor of the course being dropped/added;
    6. Return the slip in person to the Registrar's Office window, open 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. daily except during chapel.

* S/U option: if you take a course S/U, any GE credit attached to that course will NOT be applied to your record.  See policy above for additional facts about S/U (and to learn the difference between S/U and P/N grading).
