https://mypurdue.purdue.edu.
You are strongly encouraged to check with your Academic Advisor before dropping a course from your
schedule to make certain the course is not a pre-requisite for future courses. This could affect your
graduation date!
You are encouraged to change sections with extreme caution as there is a possibility you could lose your
space in the course. This too could affect your graduation date!
If you decide to change sections be sure to complete the drop and add in one transaction as follows. First,
drop the course (or part of a course) that you want to change by selecting ‘Drop (Web)’ next to the course.
Second, enter the CRN for the section you want into one of the boxes at the bottom of the screen. Finally,
select ‘Submit Changes’ to process your request.
Each time you modify your course schedule, you will need your Registration PIN #. It is recorded on the
bottom of your Form 23A. AFTER your initial registration session in myPurdue, you can also retrieve your
Registration PIN # from myPurdue by doing the following:
 Go to myPurdue
 Click on the Academic tab
 Click on Registration Pin (in list of Registration Tools)
 SELECT TERM – Fall 2015
 Click on Submit
 Your PIN will appear for you to retrieve.***
*** This only works if you have USED YOUR PIN for registration for Fall 2015. If you have not logged
on with your PIN at least once for Fall 2015, the PIN number will not appear.
