Adding, Dropping or Withdrawing from Courses/Separating from the University

Students can add or drop from courses online or in person up to the date specified in the Academic Calendar.

To drop a class or classes, a student should complete an Add/Drop form at the Office of the Registrar or access his or her class schedule via Marynet.

To drop or withdraw from all classes in a semester and maintain matriculation for the next semester, a student must request and obtain email approval for Continuous Registration from their associate dean. See Continuous Registration.

Any graduate student contemplating discontinuing studies for more than one semester or leaving the university should consult with the academic advisor or program chair to understand the impact of an interruption of study upon the degree plan. Before the last day to add classes, any newly admitted student who wishes to withdraw from the university or defer their admission, should notify via email the offices of admissions (grad.admissions@marymount.edu) and the registrar (registrar@marymount.edu). Any returning graduate student, or newly admitted student after the last day to add classes, who wishes to withdraw from the university, should notify the Office of the Registrar electronically or in writing by submitting a Separation Form approved by their associate dean. The date the student notifies the Office of the Registrar of their intent to separate is the official date that determines the student’s financial responsibility to the university. Any tuition refund or credit will be calculated based on the withdrawal/separation date recorded by the Office of the Registrar. The last date to file a request for separation for enrolled students is the last day of classes as indicated by the Academic Calendar.

Students who stop attending courses without officially withdrawing from the course or separating from the university will receive an F.
