The University of Iowa

Adding or dropping a course

You can add and drop courses via MyUI within the first five days classes.  After the first five days of classes, you must submit the Request to Add or Drop a Course form.

Withdrawing registration

Termination of enrollment in all courses for a semester, even if only one course, constitutes withdrawal of registration. You must notify our office via email at dce-registration@uiowa.edu of your withdrawal.
