Deadline to drop or add: Nov. 19
The deadline to drop a class for Fall Semester 2004 and still receive a grade of W is Friday.
Students are responsible to complete a drop card, which can be obtained in the Admissions and Records Office. Those enrolled in a class they are not attending can receive a grade of F if they do not fill out and turn in a drop card.
In addition, letters that went home to students earlier this month from the Admissions and Records Office stated that students may still add certain classes.
Students attending classes they are not officially enrolled in can add the class if they obtain an add card from the instructor and have it processed by Friday.
