Withdrawal from Courses/College
You have the responsibility to formally withdraw from courses for which you have registered, but do not intend to complete. Otherwise, you risk receiving an "F" for the course. Instructors do not withdraw students from courses. Withdrawal from one or more courses or a complete withdrawal from all courses will affect your financial aid eligibility. It may also affect funding for students receiving scholarship funds or funds from outside agencies. Contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.

You are expected to withdraw from classes in person at the Registrar's Office, using a Schedule Change Form. Under exceptional circumstances, you may withdraw by writing a letter of explanation to the College's Director of Enrollment Services.

No record of the course will appear on your transcript if the withdrawal is done before the fourth week. A notation of "W" will appear on your transcript for the course if the withdrawal is submitted from the fourth through seventh week.

The end of the seventh week of the term is the deadline for withdrawing from an individual course, as well as changing from "credit" to "audit" status.

When circumstances are beyond your control, you may completely withdraw from the term, that is: drop all courses for that term. Withdrawal must be completed by the last Friday of classes prior to final exam week. Contact the Registrar's Office for more information.
