Dropping or Adding a Course

The official Drop/Add period allows the student to change his/her semester class schedule. Please check the college calendar for the dates each term.

Adding a Course

• Students should consult their faculty advisor to determine which classes to add.

Remember: No registration is complete until it is processed through the college's computer system. Simply attending a class is not a method of official registration. Final grades will not be issued to anyone whose name does not appear on an official roster. It is ultimately the students responsibility to make sure that he or she is properly registered for a class.

Withdrawal from a Course

• Students receiving financial aid should consult financial aid to determine the impact withdrawal might have on their award. They should also consult their faculty advisor to determine possible impact on program completion timelines.

Withdrawal from the College

A student withdrawing from the college must complete the official withdrawal forms, and meet with the counseling staff by the last date to withdraw as published in the academic calendar. This procedure, once completed, terminates current registration in all courses.

Students who fail to complete the withdrawal procedure will no longer be in good standing. To re-enter the college, once the withdrawal procedure has been followed, the student must apply for readmission through the college Admissions Office.

For dropped classes, the refund policy for tuition is based on the amount of time expended in each class. Fees are not refunded, except during the free drop/add period at the beginning of the semester. Please review the refund policy for more information.
