Summary

Find out why a winter term course might be dropped from your schedule after fall grades are released, and what to do if you think it was removed by mistake.

Body

Some departments check to make sure students have successfully completed pre-requisite courses before continuing in the next term. Here's what happens:

  • If you did not meet the pre-requisite requirement in the fall term, the related winter course will be dropped from your schedule.
  • This process happens as grades are released, and may continue periodically as more grades are received.
  • If you believe you should still be enrolled in the course, contact the department that offers the course to discuss your situation.

📘 Helpful definitions:

  • Pre-requisite: A course you must pass before taking another, more advanced course.
  • Dropped course: A course that has been removed from your schedule, usually due to academic or administrative reasons.
