registration information Dropping a course The drop period usually extends through the first two weeks of the semester and can be done online in your CMS Student Center. It is essential that you always check the online registration deadlines calendar every semester. The responsibility for adding and dropping any class rests solely with the student. After the add/drop deadline, a drop is considered a withdrawal and is permissible only for serious and compelling reasons and signature approval is required. You will need to make sure that you obtain approval signatures from your instructor and dean before submitting Class Withdrawal form to the Campus Service Center. An approved withdrawal will show up as a “W” on your academic record. Withdrawals are limited to 18 units during the course of your academic career. Select the Drop tab, check the box in front of the course you would like to drop and click on the Drop Selected Classes button. 22
