ENROLLMENT ACTIONS

  • Enroll: selected when you want to add a course.
  • Drop: selected when you want to remove (or withdraw) from a course. Make sure to consult the academic calendar for drop and withdrawal dates.
  • Swap: used to exchange one course for another. This action will not allow the first course to drop unless the second course can be added. If the second course returns any error, the first course will not be dropped. This is the only way to change courses; doing so via individual enroll and drop actions can result in not being enrolled in those classes.
