Dropping a Course
Dropping courses will be allowed up to the last day of the third week of classes during a regular semester. If a full-time undergraduate student drops below twelve credits, the student must change status from full-time to part-time. Requests for dropping a course must be in writing. Courses dropped by the deadline do not appear on the student's transcript. Forms are available in the Registrar's Office, Davidson Hall. The deadline for dropping all full-semester courses is included in the registration information booklet found on the Registrar’s Office website and on the registration calendar. If a full time student drops all courses between the first day of classes and the last day of the third week of classes, the student will be withdrawn in good standing from the University and a “W” will appear on the transcript for each course dropped. Warning Failure to carry a minimum of 12 credits may affect Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) and receipt of certain federal, state, and other benefits, including but not limited to various financial aid programs, Veterans benefits, and Social Security benefits. Students dropping below 12 credits are ineligible for participation in intercollegiate athletics.
