Undergraduate students who wish to drop a fall course may use T.R.A.C.S. to do so, but must do so by the fifth calendar day after the first class meeting. Contact the Office of Registration and Records at (815) 753-0681 if you have difficulty dropping a course. Part-time B.G.S. students, please note that you may not use T.R.A.C.S. to drop a course if dropping a course would leave you with “0” credit hours. In such a case you would be withdrawing from the university for the semester, and you must contact the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences B.G.S. adviser at (815) 753-7961. If you are not currently enrolled at NIU and wish to take an undergraduate course off-campus, you may begin the application process as a non-degree student or a visiting student on T.R.A.C.S.
In order to take a course for graduate credit, a student must be admitted to the Graduate School or apply for and obtain permission from the Graduate School to register as a student-at-large. Courses at the 400 level marked with an asterisk (*) in this flyer may be taken for undergraduate or graduate credit.
