There is a difference between dropping a course and withdrawing from a course.

We allow students to drop courses only for a short time after the course begins. You should check the academic calendar to know when the drop period is for each part of term.

If you drop a course, your student account will show a credit for the tuition, and you won't get a grade.

You are allowed to withdraw from a course for a longer period of time. If you withdraw, you'll get a "W" for your grade. The date of your withdrawal will determine if any tuition credit is applied to your student account.

Withdrawing or dropping classes can change your financial aid award amount.

Always contact the financial aid office before you do either of these things.

To withdraw from a class, you'll need to complete a withdrawal form and email it to the Registrar's Office.

The email must come from your student email account.

You can find the form on the Registrar's web page.
