Course Change Period
You may make changes to your course registrations (add or drop courses), subject to the requirements and restrictions of your program and individual courses from the opening date of registration until the end of the Course Change period. The Course Change deadline coincides with the deadline for late registration. See www.mcgill.ca/importantdates.
If you drop your last Fall course after the end of August or drop your last Winter course after the end of December, you are considered to be withdrawn from the University. If you wish to resume your studies, you must follow the procedures for readmission. For more information, see Readmission.
If you are registered in the Fall term, you may add and drop Winter term courses throughout the Fall term until the Winter term deadline for course change/late registration.
After the Course Change deadline, you may add courses only with written permission of the instructor, and the Associate Dean or Director of your faculty. A fee will be charged for each course you add.
Note for the Faculties of Arts and Science (including B.A. & Sc.): As of summer 2010, requests made after the Course Change deadline must be made at the Service Point (see www.mcgill.ca/students). However, it is important that you also see a Faculty adviser in Dawson Hall to talk about your options and the effects that your request may have on your studies. For more information, see www.mcgill.ca/students/advising.
