Schedule Changes Instructions (SUMMER)
If you need to make a change to your schedule, you MUST follow the procedure detailed below. No walk-ins or direct emails please.
Students will submit an online request. In an effort to make sure that requests are reviewed fairly and students all get equal access to the spaces available in courses, schedule requests will be collected between June 8th and June 25th. SCHEDULE CHANGES WILL NOT BE PROCESSED DURING THIS TIME.
Requests will be reviewed starting the week of June 26th, 2023. Students will receive an email confirmation of the request change status (denial, request for more information, confirmation). For more complicated changes, students will have the option to come meet in person to work out possibilities on July 13th and 14th. These 1:1 meetings will be scheduled (zoom options will be available for students who are out of town) the schedule change live.
Any request made after this time will be processed during the Orientation days in August.
Once school starts, a student will have 8 weekdays at the beginning of the year to make changes without instructor approval. 1 additional week (2 weeks for an AP) with instructor approval will be considered (please note that this only applies to Carondelet Classes, DLS holds to the 8 day limit)
Schedule change requests will be collected electronically and these requests will be processed at the end of the day.
Please note: you are responsible for the cost of any new textbook fees this incurs and that our textbook companies do NOT issue reimbursements for any textbook you have purchased (or code you have redeemed if it is an electronic edition)
This form must be filled out completely and exactly to ensure that information you provide is complete enough to make a change. If information is incomplete, unclear, or impossible, your schedule change will not be processed.
1) we do not make "teacher change course requests"
2) if you want to be moved to Carondelet, you may make that request but it can trigger your losing ALL courses at DLS
3) if you do not present clear evidence of how you meet the pre-reqs for a course, your schedule request will be ignored (you can copy a screenshot of of a pre-req waiver approval, copy of your grades from powerschool or your transcript, copy of an email from teacher or department chair)
4) if your schedule is updated, any request to "go back to original" will be rejected
5) any and all course requests are subject to there being space in the class you are requesting
6) schedule constraints such as classes being offered at the same time may result in a request not being possible
