If my schedule changes later in the year, can I change my schedule (for example if I am granted an away rotation at a later time)?

  • You can change your schedule as much as you like, but you must adhere to a few rules:
    • UMass Chan policy states that you must allow at least 30 days advance notice in order to drop an elective; dropping an elective within 30 days of the start date requires approval from the elective coordinator (email the elective coordinator, let them know your reason for the late drop, and then proceed as directed) as well as Student Affairs
    • You must maintain at least 9 credits/semester to be considered fully enrolled; you cannot go below this level
    • You must be progressing towards your graduation requirements
    • You must add an elective at least 4 weeks before the start date; if it’s less than 4 weeks before an elective begins, you will need to request permission from the elective coordinator and the Office of Student Affairs in order for us to override the system to add it to your schedule.
