6.01 Dropping and Adding Courses
Students wishing to add or drop a class should do so within the time
frame stated in the college catalog. Students wishing to add or drop a class should
consult their advisor for an add/drop form. After the period for adding classes, the
add/drop form must be signed by the advisor, the instructor of the class, and the Dean for
the division in which the course is taught. In order for the student's name to appear on
the class roll, the student must return the add/drop form to the Vice Chancellor for
Administrative Services.
Students wishing to drop a class should consult their advisor for an
add/drop form. The add/drop form must be signed by the advisor, the instructor of the
class, and the Dean for the division in which the course is taught. To avoid receiving an
EW or F grade, the student must return the add/drop form to the Vice Chancellor for
Administrative Services.
The advisor should not merely "rubber stamp" the add/drop
form. Although the decision to drop a course is ultimately that of the student, the
advisor should make sure that students understand the add/drop process and are aware of
and accept the consequences of their actions. Students should be urged to discuss their
classroom performance with the instructor of the class and determine what grade they will
receive upon dropping the course.
