Students may Add, Drop, or Withdraw from a course via Academic Web Registration on the MyISU Student Portal prior to the deadlines listed in the Academic Calendar. No notation will be made on the transcript.
For permission to enroll in a closed course, a student must have a Schedule Change Card signed by the course instructor and stamped by the course department. This form must be returned to the Office of Registration and Records in Pocatello (208) 282-2661, or Student Services in Idaho Falls (208) 282-7800, Twin Falls (208) 736-2101, or Boise (208) 685-6778.
Please Note: A schedule change card with proper signatures will not guarantee a student a space in a course if adding the student causes the course to exceed the maximum number of seats assigned to the room as designated by the fire code specifications.
For schedule change deadlines in regard to Add, Drop, Audit, Pass/No Pass, and Withdrawal options, please refer to the correct semester dates located in the current Academic Calendar.
Schedule Change Cards are not used to initiate a Withdraw from the University (Refer to Withdrawal Policy).
If a student is unable or unwilling to attend any or all classes for which they have registered, it is their responsibility to initiate an official drop or withdrawal on the MyISU Student Portal. An instructor may assign a student an "FA" (failure for non-attendence) grade at mid-term if a student has not attended the class. It is the student's responsibility to notify the instructor when they are dropping a course or withdrawing from ISU.
An Instructor may use the Faculty Initiated Add Form to add a cohort of students to a course during the current semester's published drop/add period. This form is not to be used for (a) registration permit or major code overrides (b) individual student schedule change cards.
An instructor may expedite dropping student(s) from a course prior to the current semester's published drop/add period by using the Faculty Initiated Drop Form. This form may be used to (a) drop students who are in violation of a published non-attendance policy, if such a policy is in force, (b)drop students who do not meet published pre-requisites for a course. NOTE: This form is valid only during published add/drop periods and is not to be used in lieu of assigning an "F" or "U" during grading periods.
