Adding and Dropping Courses

Students may add a course any time through the end of the first week of classes. Adds are done through the Academic Advising Center and may require a visit to Financial Aid if the add is going to change the student’s financial aid status.

Students may drop a course any time up until the end of the second week of the semester. Course drops are done through the Academic Advising Center.

  • If a student drops a course after the semester begins, there will be a 50% tuition charge imposed.
  • Dropped courses do not count as credits attempted and will have no effect on the student's grade point average.
  • Summer session courses have different add/drop/withdraw deadlines that are published every summer.

Course Withdrawals

Students may withdraw from a course Weeks 3-13 of a 15-week semester or Weeks 3-5 of a 7 1/2 week term. Course withdrawals are done through the Academic Advising Center.

  • Full tuition is charged for course withdrawals.
  • The student receives a "W" for the coursework.
    • The "W" counts as credits attempted, but has no effect on the student's grade point average.
  • Students who withdraw from all their coursework, but not from the College will remain "Active" for the remainder of the semester.
