Adding and Dropping
Students may add and drop courses in the registration system in SIS until the second day of classes each term. After the second day of the term, instructor permission is required for all adds and drops until the last day to add and last day to drop as noted in the Academic Calendar. Email add/drop requests along with instructor permission to registrar@stolaf.edu.
NOTE: First-year students in their first semester must also provide written advisor approval for all adds/drops.
Contact the Piper Center to start internship paperwork through Handshake.
The link to request to repeat a course can be found by logging into SIS and clicking on Forms & Links.
The link to request an overload can be found by logging into SIS and clicking on Forms & Links.
Instructors maintain their own waitlists. Contact the instructor or the Department/Program about being added to a waitlist.
For requests to add, drop, or change a music lesson, please see the Music Lessons page and the linked forms and deadlines.
Add a Music Ensemble: Because most ensembles require an audition, new memberships can only be requested by the conductor. The conductor must contact the Music Organizations Office directly (gingeric@stolaf.edu) to add a student to the roster.
Drop or Change a Music Ensemble: Registration changes for most music ensembles are processed by the Music Organizations Office. First, you’ll need permission from the ensemble’s conductor. Once you’ve discussed the change with the conductor, fill out this form. The change will then be updated in SIS, which automatically updates the ensemble email alias.
