Full-time OSU staff may utilize priority enrollment to help ensure they are given an opportunity to identify classes at a time that is least disruptive to their work schedule. This benefit of priority enrollment is extended to full-time (100% FTE), regular staff members. Late Enrollment Students are allowed and encouraged to enroll well before the beginning of a given term. Students whose initial enrollment for the term occurs on or after the first day of the term will be charged a late enrollment fee. A student is permitted to add classes after initial enrollment without a late enrollment fee during the first two weeks of a 16-week semester or through the fifth day of an eight-week summer session or during proportionate periods for block or short courses (see additional restrictions for Adding Courses below). See the "Tuition, Fees and Cost Estimates" section of the Catalog for the current late enrollment fee amount. Adding or Dropping Classes Adding Classes Approval from the student's academic adviser is required for adding a class. The sixth day of a regular semester, or the third class day of an eight-week summer session, or proportionate periods for short courses is the last day a class may be added (nonrestrictive). With instructor approval, a class may be added during the second week of classes of a regular semester, or the fourth or fifth day of an eight-week summer session (restrictive). During the restrictive period, students must obtain their instructor's and adviser's signatures on a drop/add card and submit it to the Office of the Registrar in 322 Student Union to add a new class to their schedule. Dropping Classes Dropping refers to the dropping of one or more classes while remaining enrolled in at least one other OSU course for a given semester. Classes may not be dropped without the approval of the student's academic adviser. Enrollment changes, such as dropping classes, are the responsibility of the student. Failure to attend classes or nonpayment of tuition and fees does not constitute dropping a class. General drop periods are provided in the table below. The Academic Calendar provides specific dates for each term. Exceptions to these deadlines may be considered by petition due to documented extraordinary circumstances and committee approval. The Retroactive Drop/Withdrawal Petition and the Petition for a Refund of Tuition and Fees are available on the Registrar’s website (registrar.okstate.edu (http://registrar.okstate.edu)).

Students must be admitted to the university before they can enroll for classes. Enrollment initiates the creation of an academic record and incurs a financial obligation. (see the "Bursar (p. 31)" section of this Catalog). The registration process is introduced to new freshmen and transfer students during new student orientation. After meeting with their academic adviser to select courses appropriate to their degree plan, students enroll online via Self Service at http:my.okstate.edu (http://my.okstate.edu). An overdue account with the University or other registration holds will prevent registration until these holds have been cleared. Continuing students register for summer and fall classes during the latter part of the preceding spring semester and for spring classes during the latter part of the preceding fall semester. Continuous Enrollment An undergraduate student who is enrolled for every fall and spring semester is considered continuously enrolled. A fall or spring semester with no enrollment is considered a break in enrollment. A graduate student with no break in enrollment or with a break in enrollment of less than one year is considered continuously enrolled. See the Graduate College section of this catalog. Readmission to the university is required if a student does not maintain continuous enrollment. Priority Enrollment In order to facilitate access to courses required for timely degree completion, a student's priority for enrollment generally follows academic class level, with graduate students and seniors having the highest priority. Some exceptions to this basic priority may be necessary to accommodate bona fide student needs, such as students with physical disabilities, for those committed (by a scholarship or full-time employment at the University) to perform a service for the University on a schedule specified by the University, for graduate students and students in the Honors College. Academic Affairs determines enrollment priorities, and enrollment schedules are published in the Enrollment Guide which can be found on the Office of the Registrar's website registrar.okstate.edu (http://registrar.okstate.edu) each semester.
