Late Add or Late Swap Petitions

COSAS will only consider student petitions during the second week of the semester or the second week of the session in the summer semester. These include petitions from students to late add a course or late swap (add/drop) one course for another. Petitions will only be considered if the following conditions are met:

  • A fully completed petition has been submitted from the student’s ucf email account to coslateaddswap@ucf.edu no later than 11:59PM on Friday of the second week of the semester.*

  • The student does not have any holds on record that may block registration.
    • Petitions from students with holds blocking registration at the time petition is emailed to coslateaddswap@ucf.edu will be denied.
    • If a hold becomes active AFTER the petition is received, the student will be contacted and given a brief time to lift the hold.

    • *Petitions received after 11:59PM will be denied.

     

    Exception: Late Add Petitions for independent study, directed research, practicums and internships

    COSAS will consider late add petitions for restricted registration courses after the second week, if extenuating circumstances prevented on-time enrollment and assuming the following conditions are met:

      • Assigned work can be successfully completed within the remainder of the semester.
      • Student and instructor completed an individual agreement using the required Undergraduate Registration Agreement form submitted to COSAS.
      • Note: Course can be for credit or for no credit.
    Late Drop Petitions

    Students wanting to petition to drop a class after the add/drop/swap deadline can do so in Academic Services at https://undergrad.ucf.edu/as/.  Click on Petition Eligibility.

    If the drop is needed due to college or department error, students may petition the drop by sending an email to coslateaddswap@ucf.edu.  We will respond with instructions and an appropriate form.
