What is the Add/Drop period? Generally during the first two weeks of classes, students can add, drop, or change courses without being penalized with a "W" on their transcripts. This time period is determined by the University and is referred to as Add/Drop. However, please be advised that the Writing Program holds students responsible for all days missed. It is not advisable to "shop" for classes you like during this period, as doing so will decrease your potential for success in the class.
When is the Add/Drop period? You can check the Registrar's website for each semester's registration calendar.
Do I need to wait for a specific day during the Add/Drop period
to change my writing course? Because of the number of students the Writing Program serves, special arrangements have been made to facilitate the Add/Drop process for Writing Program courses. Students may add or drop Writing Program courses on any day during the Add/Drop period by coming in person to one of the Add/Drop centers.
Where do I go during the Add/Drop period to add or change Writing
Program courses? You have three options to change your schedule: by phone, on-line, or
in person.
- To register by phone, you should call (732) 445-1999 on your designated
days.
- To register online, use the Rutgers Web Registration System at http://webreg.rutgers.edu on your designated days.
- To register in person, you may go to any of the following registration sites—regardless of which college you are enrolled in—on your designated days (see hours below). If you are trying to add or drop before your designated day, you must do it in person:
-
BUSCH/LIV: Blumberg Auditorium, Lucy Stone Hall, A-Wing
-
BUSCH/LIV: Administrative Services Building (ASB), 65 Davidson Road
-
CAC: Records Hall Lobby, First Floor
- DC/COOK: Waller Hall, First Floor
How do I drop a writing course? If you want to drop a Writing Program class, you need to visit an Academic Advising Office. If a dean or advisor grants your request to drop
the course, she/he will contact the Writing Program to obtain a special
permission number. Once you receive this special permission number, you
must go to the Registrar or use the phone system during your designated
days.
If you are dropping or are being dropped from the course after the Add/Drop
period has concluded, you will need to go to the Registrar's office once
you've received your special permission number to complete the process
of being dropped from the course.
The Writing Program cannot give you a special permission number to drop a course without the permission
of the Dean of your college.

I was de-registered for financial reasons. What should I do? If you were de-registered for financial reasons, you should continue
to attend your classes and complete the assignments. When your financial
aid comes through, you should come to the Writing Program office on the
campus where you are attending class and you will be provided with a special
permission number allowing you to re-enroll. These numbers are only given
out to students who have been faithfully attending class and completing
the course work.
Can the course instructor give me a special permission number
to enroll in a closed section? No. It is our policy not to over-enroll Writing Program courses. Teachers
for writing courses cannot give out special permission numbers to over-enroll
closed sections.
