Before the First Day of Class

  • If you are on the waitlist and are offered a seat in the class by a system email, you have 48 hours to register for the class before it 鈥媡he notification expires. 鈥婣n email will be sent to your go.pasadena.edu account 鈥媔nforming you if a seat has become available. Please check this email often.
  • All waitlist notifications expire 鈥媡he day before the class begins.
  • If the professor for the course provides you with an add code it will not work until the first meeting day of the course. This add code expires on the last day to add/drop the course (the day before the Census date). Click on the CRN of the course in the schedule of classes for important dates. 

After the First Day of Class

Waitlists for closed classes expire on the day before the class begins. For more information on crashing courses, read our how-to guide on "how to crash a course".

Dropping Classes

The deadline for dropping a class without a W is listed in the Schedule of Classes. It can be found by clicking on the 5-digit CRN. Be sure to click on the CRN for each course in the schedule of classes to determine the last day to drop without a W and/or receive a refund, as it may be different for each course.

You will only see a course in Canvas 7 days before the class starts. If it is within 7 days of the class start day, one of the following reasons may be why you can鈥檛 the course in Canvas:

  • You may not actually be enrolled in the course (may just be on the waitlist). Waitlisted students cannot access a class until they actually add the class.
  • It may be that the instructor has not published the course in Canvas yet. You will not be able to access the actual course in Canvas if the instructor has not Published the course.  Contact the Instructor of the course via email.  Email addresses can be found in the 黑料正能量C Directory.
