Drops and Withdrawals

• Notifying the instructor or ceasing to attend class does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal.
• Changing from one section to another of the same class is considered both a drop and an add.
• Refunds are given for classes dropped during the refund period if procedures are followed. For more information, see the Refund Schedule and Calendar. The registration fee will not be refunded for a dropped class.
• A class dropped after the add/drop deadline is considered a withdrawal and therefore not entitled to a refund; it cannot be used to pay for a late add class.
