After a student completes registration, he or she may add or drop courses during the late registration period preceding the semester and continuing through the first 10 class days of the term. Thereafter, only drops are accepted. These changes may be made via touchtone telephone registration, online at http://webreg.rutgers.edu, or at the registrar's office. Refunds are not granted for courses dropped after the second week. With the beginning of the third week, and for the remainder of the semester, a W grade is assigned.
A student who stops attending a course and fails to give written notification to the registrar receives a failing grade in that course. The date on which the registrar receives written notice from the student governs the academic and financial consequences of the drop. No course may be dropped during the last two weeks of classes.
