Scheduling and Registration

Course Scheduling Advising
The Registrar is available for advisement on course scheduling. This service is most important for transfer or mixed schedule students. Schedule advisement is done on an appointment basis. Appointments may be made either by phone or in person with the registrar staff.
Course Add/Drop Procedures
Dropping and adding courses is allowed during the first 10 school days of a trimester without academic penalty. In order to add a course, the student must fulfill all the prerequisite and corequisite requirements of the course to be added. Additionally, an added course cannot overlap with any other enrolled courses, unless permitted by policy. Drop/Add forms are available in the Registrar's office and can be requested via student email.

Enrollment Verification
At the request of the student, the Registrar’s office will provide a letter stating that the student is enrolled for a trimester, the beginning and ending dates of said trimester and the anticipated date of graduation.
Loan Deferment Verification
Students will receive documents, normally on a trimester basis, from their lending institution for loan deferment information. The student must complete the upper portion of the form, sign the form and submit to the Registrar's office. The Registrar's office will complete and submit the form to the lending institution.
Withdrawls
Readmission to the College
Students desiring readmission must apply according to policies at the time of reentry. A student who has withdrawn is not guaranteed permission to re-enroll. Students wishing to reenter must notify the Registrar's office in writing of their intentions at least 30 days before the anticipated date of re-entry into the College.
Withdrawal from Individual Courses
Withdrawal from one or more individual courses is allowed through the eighth week of a trimester with a grade of "W". Withdrawal after that will result in a grade of "WF". The student must notify the Registrar's office in writing. Failure to do so will render the action unofficial and a failing grade will be recorded for the course.
Complete Withdrawal from the College
A student may withdraw from school up until 10 days before the end of the term from which the student wishes to withdraw. The withdrawal form must be completed and submitted to the Registrar's office. There is no fee for a complete withdrawal. However, all debts to the College must be paid before the procedure is considered completed. Correct preparation and timely submission of the withdrawal application will result in a "W" being assigned to all courses in which the student was enrolled. Failure to follow established withdrawal procedures would result in the assignment of an "F" to all courses in which the student was enrolled.
