If I register for 6 courses on SOLAR, but drop one before term 1 begins in September, do I get charged for 6 courses or 5 courses?

You'd get charged for 6 initially and then 5 when you drop one. When you register for 6 the system has no way of knowing that you intend to drop one later on, and as long as you drop the course before the date to drop without financial penalty, you get a 100% refund. If you haven't yet paid when you drop the course, then the refund just goes as credit towards what you owe.

Every time you make changes like that it asks you to re-confirm your payment agreement.

Thanks so much!
