ADDING AND DROPPING COURSES Students may add or drop courses after registration has been finalized. This must be done by completing and submitting the appropriate form. The date of the drop/withdrawal is the date that the official drop or withdrawal form, complete with required signatures, is returned to the office of academic affairs. Failure to attend class does not exempt students from tuition charges, and reimbursements will be based on the official drop/withdrawal date on the form according to the schedule found under “Refund Policy” in the “Finances and Student Accounts” section of the Davis College Catalog. Unofficial drops/withdrawals will result in an “F” on the student’s transcript. A student may drop a course by the date published on the academic schedule, and the course will not be noted on the student transcript. After the drop period has passed, a student may withdraw from a course and receive a final grade of “VWD” or “VWP/F” according to the date published on the academic schedule. Main Campus – A student may drop a course before the end of the first week of class; the course will not be noted on the student transcript. On or after the first day of the second week of class, a student may withdraw from a course. A “VWD” grade will be noted on the student’s transcript for any course withdrawal during the first four weeks of the semester as published on the academic schedule for the last day to withdraw from a course with a “W.” Grades of “VWP” (Voluntary Withdrawal – Passing) or “VWF” (Voluntary Withdrawal – Failing) will be noted on the student’s transcript for any course withdrawal from the fifth through sixth weeks as published on the academic schedule for the last day to withdraw from a course with a “WP” or “WF.” The last day of the sixth week of the semester is the last day that a student may officially withdraw from a course.
