Electronic Class Drop or Add - eDrop /eAdd
Information for Students
What is eDrop & eAdd?
Electronic Class Drop and Add (eDrop & eAdd) have been developed so that students are able to make changes to their class schedules without having to walk paper forms to various campus offices for approvals and processing.
- After you submit your electronic eDrop/eAdd requests, academic advisors and others will review and approve (or disapprove, if necessary) those requests using an electronic workflow system.
- Approved drop and/or add requests will then automatically update your class schedule before email notifications are sent to your iupui.edu account indicating the completion of your request.
- Note: Until you receive confirmation that the transaction has been approved and processed, you are not officially dropped or added to the class. You should attend class while you wait for the approvals.
When are eDrop and eAdd available?
- eDrop and eAdd will be available each term beginning the second week of classes.
- eDrop and eAdd will be available through the Automatic Grade of W deadline for the semester/session. The eDrop Request page will indicate which classes can be dropped through eDrop on any given day.
- For more detail on availability check the Academic Calendar.
Are any schools/programs not using eDrop/eAdd?
All IUPUI schools and programs are participating in eDrop/eAdd EXCEPT: University College (UCOL) students must see their advisor to initiate an eDrop.
How does eDrop/eAdd work for me?
If you need to drop or add a class, link to OneStart (https://onestart.iu.edu) just as you did to register for classes. From the Services tab, click Student Self Service on the left. Under Student Center, click on the Late drop/add classes (after 1st week of classes) link.
Submit your request
The subsequent pages will lead you through the process of identifying, selecting and confirming the class you need to drop or add. These pages also contain important information related to the impact of dropping a class (e.g., financial aid eligibility, full-time enrollment status, fee refund and withdrawal grade).Refunds and Grades
Important: The date/time that you initiate your eDrop or eAdd request will be used as the official date/time of your request (to determine the appropriate refund and withdrawal grade, if dropping).After submitting your request, be sure to print the receipt page for your records.
Required Electronic Approvals
Your request will be electronically routed to those persons who must approve your request to drop or add classes (i.e. instructor of class if adding, Advisor for all students, plus International Affairs or Athletics as appropriate).Notification of Completed Drop or Add
When the required approvals have been granted, your eDrop/eAdd request will trigger an automatic update to your class schedule. You will then receive an email notification at your University email address of the completed drop or add request.Note: University College students are required to contact your Advisor before an eDrop or eAdd request can be initiated.
