Dear Student,
As we approach the deadline to add and drop classes next week, I’m resending these important enrollment reminders that I sent last week. Please read them carefully, even if you’re confident you don’t need to make any changes in SIS before the deadlines.
Last day to add or drop classes from your schedule.
Tuesday, Sept. 7, is the LAST day you can ADD a class to your schedule. That means that after 11:59 p.m. EDT that day, you will not be able to add another class or change the grading option in any of your classes. In most undergraduate classes, the following day, Wednesday, Sept. 8, is the last day you can DROP a class from your schedule. The last day to drop a class in the School of Engineering and Applied Science is Thursday, Oct. 14.
Check (and recheck!) your class enrollment information in SIS.
Carefully check your class enrollment information in SIS before those deadlines. Recheck it two or three times, even if you’re sure it’s all correct. In particular, make sure your grading option for each class is correct. Most of your classes should be taken for a traditional grade (A-F), which is the Graded grading option in SIS.
Be careful about choosing CR/NC as a grading option.
Classes taken for CR/NC meet very few degree requirements. Check with your dean’s office or your school website for more information about your school’s rules regarding CR/NC. For instructions on how to view your current class grading options please click here.
Verify enrollment in SIS, not UVACollab.
Do not rely on UVACollab to verify your enrollment details. If a class doesn’t appear in your Class Schedule in SIS, you are not enrolled! If a class appears in your schedule in SIS, you are enrolled. Being added to or removed from a UVACollab site does not affect your enrollment status in SIS. SIS is what counts!
