Withdrawal Policy

There are three types of schedule adjustments: add, drop, and withdraw.

ADD:

Students may add a class until the end of the Drop/Add Period for the term at the discretion of the instructor. The student is responsible for making up any missed coursework and/or lecture time at the discretion of the professor and will be charged the full tuition amount. Any missed lecture time prior to registering for the course is still counted toward the student’s total absences.

16-Week Seated Classes                                    End of Week 3

8-Week Online or Intensive Classes                    End of Week 1

DROP:

Students drop a class when they wish to be removed from the course. Students must drop the course within the Drop/Add Period. Dropped courses will not appear on the student’s academic transcript. Concerning possible refunds, see Refund Policy.

16-Week Seated Classes                                    End of Week 3

8-Week Online or Intensive Classes                    End of Week 1

Withdrawal From Course:

After the Drop/Add Period has closed, students must request an official withdrawal from the Registrar to be removed from a course. Students are only allowed to withdraw for a certain period of time per the withdrawal schedule below.

16-Week Seated Classes                                    Weeks 4–9

8-Week Online or Intensive Classes                    Weeks 2–5

Any withdrawals after this period may only be allowed for significant conditions beyond the student’s control (e.g., serious illness documented by a physician’s letter) at the discretion of the Provost.

Withdrawals are not permitted in the last week of class for any reason.

Withdrawing renders the course grade of W (if passing) or WF (if failing). These grades are not considered when calculating GPA, but they may impact a student’s satisfactory academic progress as it relates to financial aid. Therefore, it is highly recommended you contact the Financial Aid Director prior to withdrawing.

Students who wish to withdraw from a course are required to make an official contact via email to the Registrar at registrar@ccbs.edu. In all cases, the date of withdrawal is the date the form/email is received. Students can access withdrawal forms via the website or the Registrar’s Office.

No refund will be processed for withdrawals.

Withdrawal From Program:

Students who need to withdraw from the program should always make an official contact via email to the Registrar at registrar@ccbs.edu.
