Changing Sections

The registration system does not allow students to register for two sections of the same course at the same time unless the course is repeatable for credit. Examples of repeatable courses include PE 185 and special topics courses (numbered 410).

To change sections, students must drop the existing section and then add the alternative section. Before dropping a section, it's a good idea to verify that space is available in the alternative section.
