Semester Dates Schedules:

The semester link above displays a schedule that outlines the following dates for each type of class in a semester:

Start (first day of class): Schedule changes made on this day or prior to start of classes will not incur a drop/add fee. From the second day of classes forward, the drop/add fees are charged.
Last day to register: This date will be the last date for which you can add a class. Classes dropped prior to or on this day will not appear on your grade report or your transcript.
Last day to drop with a W: Classes dropped after the last day to register through this day will appear on your grade report and your transcript with a "W" (withdrew) as a grade. The W grade does not affect your GPA.
Last day to drop with a WP/WQ: This will be the last date for which you can drop any class. Classes dropped after the last day to drop with a W period will be assigned a grade of WP (withdrew passing) or WQ (withdrew failing). The WQ grade counts in both the semester and cumulative GPA. You may not officially withdraw past this date.
Last day of class: This will be the last day that the class meets.
Finals: See the finals schedule for the date of the final exam.

NOTE: If you plan to drop all of the classes in your schedule, this is an academic withdrawal. Please report to the Registrar's Office to begin the withdrawal process.
