Registration
Adding and dropping classes
If you need to drop a class, please complete the process online. Choosing not to go to class doesn't automatically drop you, in fact it can really hurt you in the long run.
IMPORTANT: If you are a student who receives financial aid, reducing your credit below 12 credits can mean that you will get less aid.
Beyond Week 2- Beyond the 10th day of the quarter, it becomes more difficult to drop classes and you must fill out a
petition to do so. TRIO can help! If you need guidance about dropping a class- don’t hesitate to reach out to your advisor.
Are you taking summer courses?
To be considered for financial aid for the summer quarter, please complete and email the Summer Interest Form to finaid@evergreen.edu by May 1, 2023. You can access the form and learn more about summer registration by visiting
