Course Drops and Withdrawal

Students can drop from courses during the self-service registration period which runs through the first week of classes. To request a drop after this time, students will need to use the eDrop function through One.IU. If withdrawing from all classes in a term, the student must reach out to their Academic Advisor.

Students have the responsibility to be aware of the course times for the sections in which they register during the registration period. Students may not request a section change for classes with multiple sections once the term has begun. If a course has been dropped, students may not request to re-register for the course.

Integrated core blocks for the MBA cannot be dropped individually. Dropping from one core course in a block requires all core courses to be dropped.
