Any student can drop one or more classes until the end of the ninth week of a semester or the fourth week of a summer session—commonly referred to as the "Last Day to Withdraw." (For courses meeting on nonstandard dates, completion of two-thirds of the session is the guideline for withdrawing from a course.)

• When a student drops a class (classes) prior to the first day of classes, the course is not listed on his/her academic record.
• When a student drops a class (classes) during the 100% refund period, the course is not listed on his/her official academic record.
• When a student drops one or more classes after the 100% refund period and before the "Last Day to Withdraw," a grade of "W" (Withdrawn) is recorded on the academic record for the class (classes).
• A student who stops attending without officially dropping the course will receive a grade of "F".
