理解退课和退学

Dropping or withdrawing from a course can impact financial aid and scholarships, living on campus, military and veteran benefits, international student visa status and time to degree. 下面列出了重要的考虑事项。

A student is considered 登记 at 稳定的十大彩票网站 when you are registered for one or more courses, even if you have not paid your bill or attended class. If you no longer wish to be 登记 in a course(s), here are some things to consider:

时机

The timing within the term plays an important role in how your decision to disenroll from a course impacts your record; please consult the 校历 for the relevant dates based on the information below:

滴

During the 更改时间表 period, also known as 可以删除/添加, disenrolling from a course will result in a drop and the course will no longer appear on your record.

取款

After the 更改时间表 period ends, disenrolling from a course is considered a 撤军. The course will still appear on your record but with a grade of W which does not impact your GPA (grade point average).

财务影响取决于您何时退出。 (请参阅下面的财务影响)

如何退课或退课

您可以使用学生仪表板退出课程。 It is your responsibility to disenroll if you are not planning to continue.

退出的类型

选择退出

A 撤军 from one (but not all) courses in a term is a 部分或选择性退出 where only the courses that were withdrawn are graded with a W and you remain 登记 in other courses.

完全撤军

退出所有课程是完全或完全退出。 All courses in a single term are graded with a W with a complete 撤军.

从大学退学

If you wish to 撤军 and you are currently 登记, you should disenroll from all of your courses. (Whether a drop or 撤军 is dependent on timing — see above for clarification.)

If you are not currently 登记 in this term or any future terms, you do not need to take any additional action. Not being 登记 indicates that you are no longer a current student at 稳定的十大彩票网站.

When you are ready to resume your studies at 稳定的十大彩票网站 in a future term, the Reenrollment办公室 is ready to help you through the process.

医疗、心理健康或紧急情况提款

If you need assistance as a result of a medical, mental health, or emergency situation that may result in a 撤军 refer to 学生外展及支援（SOS） to complete an SOS形式. SOS staff members can assist you with 撤军s and advocate for you in difficult situations.

Please direct your requests for retroactive 撤军s to 学术标准 in the 注册处.

金融的影响

Whether the course is a drop or 撤军 will determine if you are eligible for any kind of cancellation of fees or a refund. Refer to the 学生和大学帐单办公室 for more information and deadlines.

Dropping or withdrawing from classes can have significant impacts on your financial aid (grants, scholarships, and loans). The impacts will vary based on the types of aid you receive, whether you drop or withdraw from classes and whether you drop/withdraw from all your classes or just some of them.

的问题, 联系财政援助办公室 并利用这些资源：

学生 receiving military/veteran benefits should consult with the 军事和退伍军人中心 with any questions prior to dropping or withdrawing as this action could have impact on their benefits.

完成学位时间：

Withdrawing from a class won’t impact your GPA but it may delay your degree completion timeline.

Talk to your academic advisor about prerequisites and frequency of course offerings to determine how a course 撤军 will impact your graduation timeline.

To graduate in four years, you need to earn an average of 30 units each academic year, for 120 units

  • Winter minimester and summer terms are great times to take an extra course to ensure you reach 30 units each year.

If you are unsure of how a 撤军 will impact your major, prerequisites or your graduation timeline, you should contact your major advisor for assistance. Kathryn Klimas, our reenrollment advisor, is another great resource; you can reach her at .

特殊学生情况的考虑

  • If you live on campus you must be 登记 as a full-time student for 12 units or more.
  • If you are resident students and you withdraw and fall below 12 units, you could have issues with your housing.
    • If you are below 12 units you must submit a one-time permission request via Housing and Residence Life.
  • Contact 住房和居住生活:
    电子邮件: or phone 410-704-2516
  • If you are an international student with an F1 or J1 visa status you should not withdraw from courses that result in less than full-time enrollment before consulting with the 国际学生学者办公室. This could result in non-compliance with immigration regulations and jeopardize your visa status.
