Drop: Dropping a course may occur all the way up until the Drop Deadline (noted on the Academic Calendar). This can be done through Self-Service. In the top left corner of the main Self Service page, click on the drop-down menu, go to Registration and select Cart and Schedule. From here, you can find the course you would like to drop and click the Drop button on the course and then click Update. You can then remove the course from your schedule after you drop it by clicking the “X” in the top corner of the course.
Alternatively, you can contact the Registrar’s Office via e-mail (registrar@sebts.edu).
When dropping a course in Self-Service, a dropped course will not show up on your transcript and the associated tuition charges will be credited back to your student account.
Drops initiated after the tuition deadline will be charged a $25 Add/Drop Fee per course
Note: After the last day to add classes, the “Drop” feature on Self-Service will be disabled, and you will have to contact the Registrar’s Office to be dropped.
Withdraw: Withdrawing from a course occurs when you no longer wish to be enrolled in a course, but the Drop Deadline has passed. To withdraw, you must submit a Course Withdrawal Request form located here. If you withdraw, the professor will give the approval on the requested form as well as a Withdraw Pass or Withdraw Fail. The “WP” or “WF” will appear on your transcript, however it will not affect your GPA. Furthermore, the student will still be held responsible for tuition; in other words, the associated tuition charges will NOT be credited back to your student account.
Both drops and withdrawals can affect your financial aid, so please contact the Financial Aid Office at financialaid@sebts.edu to check if this move is right for you. It is also a good idea to communicate with both your professor and your advisor before dropping or withdrawing in order to investigate any possible options for help.
