Dropping a Class

Students should check the College’s academic calendar to determine when they can drop a class. After registering for a course, you can typically only drop a course until the end of the first week for Fall and Spring classes and until the end of the first day for Winter and Summer classes. If you miss the deadline to drop a course, you can typically withdraw from the course before the course withdrawal deadline posted in the Academic Calendar. Students with HOLDS may visit
the Office of the Registrar for assistance with dropping courses.
Note: Dropped courses will not appear on the student’s transcript, but withdrawn courses do.

Withdrawing from a course

Dates related to course withdrawal can be found on the Academic Calendar. A student who decides to WITHDRAW from a course after the 50% refund period (but no later than the last day to withdraw from a course) may do so on Web Self-Service. Students with HOLDS may visit the Office of the Registrar for assistance with dropping courses. Once the withdrawal is processed, both student and instructor will receive notification that the student has been withdrawn from the course. Withdrawn courses appear on a transcript as a grade of “W”; this shows that you attempted the course, but did not complete it.
