Students wishing to add or drop a course or change course sections must do so during the add/drop periods as outlined below:

  • For all standard semester-long courses (15-week courses): Add/drop period ends at 11:59 p.m. on the seventh calendar day from the first day of the semester.
  • For all term-based courses (8-week courses): Add/drop period ends at 11:59 p.m. on the seventh calendar day from the first day of the term.

Weekend Intensive, Short Courses, Conferences, Workshops & Travel Study Courses
Weekend intensive courses must adhere to either an 8-week or 15-week schedule and abide by the timelines and policies for add/drop, withdrawals, and refunds for that term or semester length. Students who officially drop a course and submit all appropriate forms should reference the refund policy outlined under the Financial Aid, Bills, & Payments section of the website at https://lesley.edu/students/financial-aid-bills-payments/refund-policies-processes
