Returning students must perform the change of registration (drop/add, credit/audit) through CAESAR. If you are dropping your last course, or courses, you need to do so in writing or in person at the SCS office in Chicago or Evanston.

New students may perform the registration change by completing the Change of Registration Form (PDF Format). You may fax, mail, or bring the form to either SCS office. Any student withdrawing from all classes in a term must use the Change of Registration Form (PDF Format) and turn it in to either SCS office. If you do not submit the form in person, it is your responsibility to contact the SCS office in Chicago to confirm that the form has been processed.

Registration changes (drop/add, credit/audit) made after the CAESAR deadlines are accepted in writing only. Students who drop courses or withdraw from SCS may be eligible for a tuition refund, less any nonrefundable fees and deposits. The tuition refund policy is applied as of the date the written request is received. Do not send registration change requests to the course instructor or to the Office of Student Accounts.

Please keep dated copies of all correspondence.
