Adding a course: A credit class may be added only up until the first scheduled class meeting. After the class begins, written permission from the instructor is required in order to register. CREDIT CLASSES CANNOT BE ADDED AFTER MID-TERM.

Request forms for medical withdrawals are reviewed individually. Refunds are issued when appropriate within the guidelines of the College of DuPage refund policy. You will receive written notification of the decision within two (2) weeks from the office of the Director of Admissions, Registration and Records.
Automated Prerequisite Checking
Before registering for any course with a listed prerequisite, students are expected to have met the
prerequisite requirement(s) or be currently enrolled in the prerequisite course.
Auditing a Class
Intent to audit a credit class must be indicated at the time of registration and the higher
audit tuition charge will be assessed. The audit grade of “X” is recorded on the permanent academic record: No credit is earned and the audit grade does not affect the grade point average (GPA).
No student will be assigned an audit grade for any class unless the above registration procedure is observed.
Late registration
After the first scheduled class meeting, you must obtain written permission from the instructor to register for a credit class. Registration online will no longer be available at this time. Credit classes cannot be added after mid-term (
see Registration Calendar).
Adding or Withdrawing from NON-CREDIT Classes
You can register for classes up until the time the class begins. A 100 percent refund is given up to one (1) calendar day before the start of class. Please note that non-attendance does not count as a withdrawal.
Cancellation Policy
The College cannot guarantee that all the classes listed in the online or printed Class Schedule will be available when you register and reserves the right to cancel classes if there is insufficient enrollment. If your class is canceled, you may select another class or receive a full tuition refund.
