You may then choose to accept or drop the elective depending on your scheduling needs

You can change your schedule as much as you like, but you must adhere to a few rules:

UMass Chan policy states that you must allow at least 30 days advance notice in order to drop an elective; dropping an elective within 30 days of the start date requires approval from the elective coordinator (email the elective coordinator, let them know your reason for the late drop, and then proceed as directed) as well as Student Affairs
You must maintain at least 9 credits/semester to be considered fully enrolled; you cannot go below this level
You must be progressing towards your graduation requirements
You must add an elective at least 4 weeks before the start date; if it’s less than 4 weeks before an elective begins, you will need to request permission from the elective coordinator and the Office of Student Affairs in order for us to override the system to add it to your schedule.

Yes, you should sign up beginning 3/6/19, and optimally, complete your initial selections before 4/9/19
After 5/1/19, we will open available elective slots to visiting students through VSLO, on a rolling basis
If you change your schedule after 5/1/19 and find that the elective you would like is not available, you will be placed on a waitlist for the elective and will be added if another student drops the elective

While not all electives are available in POE, the majority of electives are available in POE
To browse all available electives, go to the OSA Electives Site; the listing will indicate when the elective you are interested in is available (which blocks). Keep in mind that the information posted right now still reflects the 18-19 academic year, as the current 4^th year students are still choosing spring semester electives.
To see if your elective is available through POE, go to the OSA PeopleSoft Online Enrollment site, where you will find a list of POE electives; sign up online in PeopleSoft
If your elective is not listed as available through POE, check to see if it is an Approval Required Elective; if it is, you will sign up using the Internal Elective add/drop form, which is listed in the left nav on that page
