The deadline to enroll in courses on MyUCLA without permission from the instructor is Friday of Week 1 (4PM PDT) of the course. Students may enroll after Friday of Week 1 (4PM PDT) of the course if they have permission from the instructor with one of the following two ways:

• Enroll on MyUCLA using a Permission to Enroll (PTE)* number (only available until the end of Week 2); OR
• Submit a Student Update Form (PDF) with either an authorized signature from the instructor or a PTE* number provided on the form. The form may be emailed to info@summer.ucla.edu.

*Permission to Enroll (PTE) numbers are limited and are only given at the instructor's discretion. 

NOTE: A late fee of $50 will be assessed for each course added after Friday of the second week of each session. No late fees are assessed if a student is re-adding a class that was dropped, switching sections of the same class, or adding any 99, 195-199, 596-599 courses. 

If the course you wish to take reaches capacity, you may add yourself to the waitlist, if available, on MyUCLA.

If you are not automatically enrolled in a course from the waitlist by 5:00 PM, Friday Week 1 of the course, you will be dropped from the waitlist and receive a refund of the course fees. If it is the only course you are enrolled in, you will receive a full refund and will not be subject to the processing fee.

Students can resolve their waitlist status before the end of Week 1 by:

• Enrolling on MyUCLA using a Permission to Enroll (PTE) number*, which can be obtained from the instructor or the course home department. For a tutorial on enrollment, please click here; or
• Submitting a Student Update Form with a PTE number to info@summer.ucla.edu.

Students may verify their enrollment status in a particular course by viewing their Studylist using MyUCLA.

*Permission to Enroll (PTE) numbers are limited and are only given at the instructor's discretion.

Students may drop any impacted course until 5PM (PDT) on the following deadlines:

After Friday of Week 1 of the course, dropping an impacted course is by approval only in accordance with the Impacted Course Drop Policy. As requests are rarely granted only under extenuating circumstances, students who wish to drop an impacted course past the Week 1 deadline should consult the course instructor and explore other academic options. If after exploring other options, a visiting student still wishes to proceed with dropping the course, the student may submit a Summer Drop Request Form (PDF) to the UCLA Summer Sessions Office (info@summer.ucla.edu) to petition the course be dropped.

Students may drop any non-impacted course until 5PM (PDT) on the following deadlines if the final was not attempted or submitted:

NON-IMPACTED COURSE DROP INSTRUCTIONS

Any course not indicated on the Impacted Course List is considered non-impacted and subject to the drop procedures below:

• MyUCLA Drop Instructions: Sign-in to MyUCLA, select "Classes", then "Drop a Class" and proceed with the course cancellation.
• Summer Drop Request Form Instructions: Submit a Summer Drop Request Form (PDF) along with verification the final was not attempted or submitted to info@summer.ucla.edu.

If a non-impacted course is confirmed as dropped prior to 5PM (PDT) of the last day of the course's session, there will be no transcript notation.
