From Jan. 26 through Feb. 1, departments admins were responsible for processing students' section, recitation or lab changes once they were approved by the instructor or department.
As of Tuesday, Feb. 2, department admins must request a course change by submitting an online special action form to the Office of the Registrar. If the department tries to make the change, the student will be assigned W grades. This is also the case for drop forwards (e.g., MATH 2300 to MATH 2400) and drop backs (e.g., MATH 2300 to MATH 1300).
