Newly admitted students are allowed to enroll course(s) paying required fee on the day of admission. The admission of a newly admitted student will be canceled if  he/she fails to enroll course(s) within 14 days of the term following admission and fails to attend the classes. 

A student may add a course any time during the 1st to 14th days of classes if sufficient space is available and permission is obtained from the course instructor and department Head. A student may likewise drop a course without responsibility for grades through the 14th day of each term. Failure to drop a course within the stipulated period will result in an "F" grade being recorded.

A student may withdraw from a course within 42 days after commencement of the term with a 'W' in the transcript. Normally withdrawal after 42 days will result in an "F" grade. Under special circumstances, a student may be allowed to withdraw from courses up to 56 days after commencement of the term upon approval of the instructor and the Major Professor but a "W" will appear on the transcript.

When a student's academic progress is interrupted by an emergency situation such as serious illness, accident or death of a family member and the student submits evidence of such incident to the Dean of Graduate Studies, he or she may withdraw from the term with "I" grades in all courses.

The minimum number of credits for a full-time regular student per term is 9; and the maximum will be 16. The number of credits can be increased by approval of the Dean of Graduate Studies. Part-time students may be accepted with a reduced course load. However, in the first term of admission at least 9 credit hours of course should be enrolled and be completed.

Students are permitted to audit courses with the approval of the course instructor and the Dean of Graduate Studies. An audited course can not be taken as a credited course.
