For information on the start date of specific courses, access the Search for Classes feature on CLAWS and look at the Section Information, or contact the Office of Records and Advising at 773-298-3501. Students who register for a class are responsible for tuition unless they officially withdraw either in the Office of Records and Advising or through CLAWS. Fees are not refundable. Notifying the instructor or ceasing to attend the class does not constitute an authorized withdrawal.
A class may be dropped without academic penalty until the 3/4 point of the section. For information on the drop date of specific courses, access the Search for Classes feature on CLAWS and look at the Drop Deadline Column, or contact the Office of Records and Advising at 773-298-3501.
