More information about OTE drop:

One-Time-Exception (OTE) is a Q-drop or withdrawal after the regular deadline. Every undergraduate is allowed one OTE, whether it is used to withdraw from all classes or drop one class. An OTE drop counts as one of your six Q-drops. Once it is used, you can not use it again.

Deadline to use your OTE is December 6th at 5 PM CDT. Please consult with an advisor regarding questions about using OTE. OTE requests are processed by the Dean's office and must be requested to Dean's office advisor to initiate.

Who is my advisor?

There are four economics major advisors and over 1500 Economics majors. We don’t have assigned caseloads and we don’t require advising (unless you are below a 2.0 GPA). You are welcome to schedule with the same advisor you have met with before, or with whichever advisor best fits your schedule! Our records system allows us to review notes from your previous advising sessions, to assure continuity for you, regardless of which advisor you met with previously. Meet our advising team below!
