JWU Providence : Course Registration : Add Drop

Add Drop

To add or drop courses while maintaining enrollment in a term, login to jwuLink > go to Registration & Grades > Register > Add or drop classes.

  • Select the correct term.
  • Enter your Course Registaration Numbers (CRN) into the worksheet boxes.
  • Click Submit.
  • If dropping a course, select the web drop option from the corresponding CRN and submit.

An official add or drop can also be completed through Student Academic Services.

Deadlines
Add/drop is turned off shortly after a term starts. Deadlines are as follows:

  • You may add or drop a course prior to its second class meeting.
  • Culinary/pastry laboratory segments: You must drop by Wednesday of the first week of the term, or you will receive full charges unless a Leave of Absence is approved.
  • Online courses: You may add by the first Saturday or drop by the second Saturday of the term.

If you are still within add/drop guidelines but cannot add/drop a course in jwuLink, visit Student Academic Services to make changes. Plan appropriately to avoid having to withdraw from a course.

Impact When you drop a course, the course is removed entirely from your schedule, and there is no record of the course on your official transcript. If the course becomes closed, it may not be added back to your schedule.

Whenever you participate in Add/Drop, your financial aid and account charges may be adjusted. Consult Student Financial Services to review the potential impact, especially if your enrollment status changes to or from part-time/full-time.
