All students are asked to give their Social Security number when registering in the University. However, a Social Security number is required of international students only when they will be receiving payments from the University; these students should consult the International Students and Scholars Office (524 Riverside Drive; telephone 212-854-3587) for further information. Other students who do not have a Social Security number should obtain one from their local Social Security office well in advance of registration.

Each student arranges a program of courses in consultation with an adviser before the beginning of each term. Delayed registration is subject to the University rules regarding penalty fees.


Changes in Programs of Study

Once registered, a student may drop or add courses or change sections by filing a formal change-of-program application with the Office of Student Financial and Information Services during the change-of-program period each term; consult the Academic Calendar for dates. All such changes must first be approved by the student's adviser.

Students may drop courses after the change-of-program period, however, for courses dropped after the last day for change of program in each term, no adjustment of tuition will be made. Consult the Academic Calendar for dates. Failure to attend classes or unofficial notification to the instructor does not constitute dropping a course, and will result in a failing grade in the course.
