Change of status will affect Title IV eligibility. Contact the Financial Aid office to determine earned aid and future eligibility. Questions concerning refunding should be directed to the Business Office.

Adding and dropping courses must be completed on the Change of Class Schedule form prior to the end of the add/drop period. Dropped courses during this period do not appear on the student's transcript.

Withdrawing from classes after the add/drop period is completed on the same form, Change of Class Schedule. The student may report withdrawal through mid-term (see Academic Calendar). A grade of "W" will be awarded through mid-term. After mid-term, withdrawals will be reported by the instructor on the final grade roster. Instructors must use their discretion to distinguish between a "W" grade (student in good standing) and a "WF" grade (student not in good standing). The "WF" grade is calculated into the GPA as a punitive grade.

After completion of the Change of Class Schedule form, it must be submitted to the Student Records office for processing.
