Change Registration

Changing Registration

Changing your registration can have academic, financial aid, and billing consequences. Please contact your Student Success Coach or One Stop if you have any questions about the process.

Before making changes to your course load or grade basis:
  1. Check the cancellation,add, and refund deadlines to determine if you need approvals or your changes have financial repercussions.
  2. Ask your student success coach whether changes will effect your academic progress, and talk to a One Stop staff about potential effects on financial aid.
  3. Obtain permission from an instructor if required.

If no approvals are required and you are confident that making the change is necessary, use Web registration to process your registration change(s).

If you are a non-degree student or otherwise unable to use Web registration, print and complete the Registration and Cancel/Add Request (pdf) if you prefer to submit your form by fax, mail, or in person.

Withdrawing from the University

If you are considering withdrawing from the University for one semester or longer please contact your Student Success Coach as soon as possible. They will help guide you through the process, with your best interest and goals in mind.

How you withdraw may impact your financial aid, including possible repayment of aid; permanent course record; academic standing at the University of Minnesota; housing; and your ability to take courses in the future.

Leave of Absence

If there is a chance you may return to the University you will need to complete a leave of absence form. See your Student Success Coach for more information.
