Students will not be able to drop their only (last) course on MyUI if the course has started. If the student is not going to add any other courses for the session then they should process a withdrawal of entire registration in MyUI (even if only one course). If student plans to drop their last course but enroll in another course they should enroll in the other course first which will allow them to drop the first course.
- Any off-cycle courses (sections that do not meet for the full length of the session) that have already started will be available for students to add or drop on MyUI.
- If a course requires special permission, an add can be initiated but please contact the department offering the course to be sure you meet the requirements for special permission.
- Students can join a waitlist if the option is available on MyUI. Once a waitlist has expired, you may initiate an add in MyUI if you were not offered a seat. You will need to obtain the required permissions.
- Student Athletes and International Students may add courses on MyUI but additional permissions will be required to drop courses. Please click here for more information.
- Selected Iowa MBA program students are required to contact their program coordinator to make changes. Iowa MBA students should view program-specific instructions available here.
For more information regarding registration, please visit the Office of the Registrar Registration webpage or contact the UI Service Center.
Note: While we encourage you to use MyUI to process changes, if your change cannot be processed in MyUI, we will also accept the email option with permissions for a change at registrar@uiowa.edu as long as all required permissions are sent from uiowa email addresses and all required permissions are in the same email.
