Dropping and Withdrawal

Dropping or Withdrawal of courses refers to the process in which a student voluntarily un-enrolls from a course. Students are considered enrolled in their courses that appear on their Enrollment Assessment Forms (EAF) that are issued by the Office of the University Registrar.

 For more information, please see Dropping/Withdrawal.

Students who fail to drop/withdraw a course(s) are considered officially enrolled in the course(s) and are therefore, covered by all the provisions applicable to enrolled students.

For purposes of official academic records, dropped courses do not appear in the Transcript of Records and are treated as if these were not enrolled. Withdrawn courses, however, appear in the Transcript of Records as a “W.”
