SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENT PERIOD

The Schedule Adjustment Period is the 4 day time frame at the beginning of each session, when you can use your
myUMBC account to SWAP, ADD, or DROP a course.

Summer Session I Schedule Adjustment Period (May 28 - May 31)
Note: May 31 is the last day to drop without a "W" on your transcript.

Summer Session II Schedule Adjustment Period (July 8 - July 11)
Note: July 11 is the last day to drop without a "W" on your transcript.

Swap a Course(s)

The SWAP option allows you to simultaneously add and drop a class (with the same number of credits) without financial or academic penalty. The class you wish to remove will not be dropped until you are successfully enrolled in the added course.

Add a Course(s)

During the schedule adjustment period, check with the instructor before adding a course to ensure missed course work can be completed. Courses added during the Schedule Adjustment Period will be assessed a non-refundable $20 late registration fee.

Drop a Course(s)

Courses dropped during the Schedule Adjustment Period will receive a pro-rated refund based on the date the course is dropped.. If a course is dropped after the Schedule Adjustment Period, the transcript will reflect a "W" for the course.

After the Schedule Adjustment Period Ends

Once the Schedule Adjustment Period ends, you can no longer use myUMBC to make schedule adjustments, EXCEPT to drop a course (up to and including the following deadline dates):

Session I

             4 Week Course  June 13               8 Week Course:  July 3
             6 Week Course  June 21             12 Week Course:  July 24

.

Session II

             4 Week Course:  July 24             
             6 Week Course:  August 2          

Course dropped after the Schedule Adjustment Period will reflect a "W" for the course on your transcript.

NOTE:  If you would like to change you grade method for a course from “regular” to “pass/fail" before the above listed deadline dates, you need to submit an (RT) Help Ticket to the Registrar’s Office.

Withdrawing from Summer Session 2013

After the last day to drop a course from a session, the only way to drop a course is to withdraw from the session (i.e., drop all courses in the session).  Submit an (RT) Help Ticket to the Registrar’s Office requesting a “semester withdraw" before the withdrawal deadline.  A notation of “Session Withdrawal” will appear on your transcript.
