Students

What is the deadline for dropping or adding a course?

The deadlines for all course registration, drop/add, and other information is contained in the Academic Calendar

Students can use their alternate PIN to make changes to their schedules until the end of the Add/Drop period, this is typically one week for full-semester long courses but a much shorter time frame for half-semester, summer, and winter courses. Check the current registration calendar for those deadlines.

After the Add/Drop period, students will need to visit with an advisor to drop a class.

Instructor and Department Chair permission is required to add a class after the Add/Drop period. 

Students should discuss schedule changes with an advisor to be sure the desired changes do not negatively impact academic progress or financial aid.

Please note:

What date you drop a class determines whether you receive a refund. Please see Student Accounts Refund Policies page for further information.

Changes made to your schedule after the semester begins may incur additional charges.

How to Request a Medical Withdrawal

When students must withdraw from the College or course(s) due to their personal medical condition, they must obtain written verification from the physician/ mental health professional and include all other required withdrawal forms. All such information given to the College is treated as confidential and privileged, as allowable by law. The student’s request for a medical withdrawal should be submitted to the Student Services Central before the end of the semester in which the condition occurs.

Students must complete an Official Withdrawal from the College prior to submitting a Request for Medical Withdrawal.

Note:Withdrawals approved for medical reasons do not generate an automatic refund of tuition, waiver of the physical education requirement, or waiver of financial aid requirements. If approved for a medical withdrawal, the student must still fill out a Tuition Credit Application.
