This form is used only to backdate a drop because of an administrative error or to drop a course for which no tuition penalty should be assessed because another course has been substituted for it (added after the end of week two of classes) by the student.
Students seeking co-op should follow the Co-op office guidelines and advice prior to registration. Under a normal situation, the students register to the applicable MSE co-op course in go丁香园AV.
