Changes in Registration

Students may obtain Drop/Add forms form the Dean of the School. After Registration Day, Ouachita charges a $15 fee for each submitted form.

The last day to add, drop, or withdraw from a course appears in the official Ouachita calendar printed inside the catalog's front cover.

The form to add a course requires the signatures of the student's academic advisor and the instructor and Dean of the School.

A student may, with the signatures of the academic advisor and Dean of the School, drop a course prior to the deadline stated in the calendar.

A student may, with the signatures of the academic advisor and Dean of the School, withdraw from a course prior  to the deadline stated in the calendar.

The distinction between dropping and withdrawing is as follows:  A course which the student has officially dropped will not appear on the student's record. A course from which the student has officially withdrawn will be assigned a final grade of W.

Failure to attend without either dropping or withdrawing officially from a course will result in a grade a F.
