How to Add Classes
Don't stand in line; add classes online or by phone!
Here's how:
- Attend the first meeting of the class to get an Add Code Label from the
instructor if there is space in the class. The Add Code Label is the instructor's
permission to add the class.
- Go to the online registration system or STAR
system (phone) to add classes. Students who do not have personal access
to the Internet can use campus computers listed below.
Please note:
- Although wait-listed students get first
consideration for available seats in classes, it is still possible for other
students to try to add courses once school begins.
- The add code will work one time only and will be valid for the first two
weeks of the quarter. For Summer Session, the add code expires at the end
of the first week of classes.
- You may still add classes at Admissions
and Records.
- Check the academic calendar for the last day to
add classes.
Computer Locations:
- Student and Community Services Building
- Open Media Lab, Learning Center West (only during first two weeks of school)
- Distance Education, Learning Center West, Room 102
- The Internet Lab, second floor of the Learning Center (Library)
- Financial Aid Office, Hinson Campus Center, lower level
How to Drop Classes
Dropping Classes During Fall, Winter and Spring Quarters
For deadlines, please see the academic calendar.
Beginning fall 2007, students will be able to drop online at www/deanza.edu/my up to the final drop deadline. (See the academic calendar for specific dates.)
First two weeks of class: To drop quarter-length classes during the first two weeks of the terms, students must use the STAR
(Student Telephone Assisted Registration) system or drop
online. There
will be no grade of record if classes are dropped by the deadline. You may also be eligible for a refund but will need to request one in writing if you do qualify.
Week three through eight: Students must drop in person at Admissions. A grade of "W" will be recorded for classes dropped after the third week of the quarter. Failure to drop within the deadlines will result in a grade assignment at the end of the quarter.
Dropping Creative Arts courses (Arts, Film/TV, Photography, Music, etc) and some Chemistry classes: Students who drop these courses and still owe for materials or equipment will have holds placed on their records. A collection agency will be notified if the balance isn’t paid or the material/equipment is not returned to the appropriate lab or division.
Drops after week eight: Students who have not withdrawn by the end of the eighth week of the quarter will receive the appropriate grade for their achievement in the course. No end-of-term drops are allowed without documented extenuating circumstances per California state regulations.
Dropping Classes During Summer Session ONLY
For deadlines, please see the academic calendar.
You may use the online registration system or STAR
(Student Telephone Assisted Registration) for classes that meet the following requirements:
For all drops and withdrawals after the "no grade of record" (W) time
period, students may drop online (starting summer 2008).
Important: If you decide to drop classes before school begins, you must
use the online registration system or the STAR
(Student Telephone Assisted Registration) system. This will create space
in your classes for other students who are on waiting lists.
