Adding and Dropping Classes
The Registrar’s maintains deadline dates for adding and dropping courses. Until the Registrar’s deadline, you may add or drop a course online using MyNMSU.
After the Registrar’s deadlines, you will need an Add/Drop Slip and approvals in order to make a change to your course schedule.
Add/Drop Slips are available in the Associate Dean’s Office – Goddard Hall 106. Be sure to collect all required signatures before bringing your forms for processing!
How Do I Add or Drop a Course After the Deadline?
You can find the specific add and drop deadlines at the Registrar’s website. As a general rule:
