Dropping or Withdrawing from Courses
As a registered student it is your responsibility to drop
courses you do not plan to attend. Don't assume an instructor
will drop you for non-attendance-your failure to drop may
result in an "F". The professor's signature is not required.
- You may drop courses on the web through your MySierra account or in person at the Admissions Office.
For further details please refer to our Registration webpage.
- If you do not attend or stop attending courses and fail to
personally drop by the Add/ Drop/ Refund Deadline, you will
be responsible for all tuition and fees.
- If you do not attend or stop attending courses and fail to
personally drop by the Deadline to Withdraw and receive a
"W", you will receive a letter grade.
- For refund information see Refunds.
Full-term Courses
Full-term courses dropped within the first two weeks of the
semester or the first three days of each summer session (Add/ Drop/ Refund
Period) will not appear on the student's academic record.
Courses dropped after this period will appear on the student's
record with a "W" and are called withdrawals. The
academic record of a student who remains in class beyond the
deadline to withdraw will reflect a grade other than "W".
For Full-term courses please refer to the Semester
Calendar for the applicable semester to determine the
Add/ Drop/ Refund Deadline or the Deadline to Withdraw
and receive a "W".
Short-term & Fast-Track Courses
Short-term & Fast-track courses have their own individual
deadlines which can be verified by the professor or by calling
Admissions & Records at (916) 781-0430. All deadlines
for each Short-term & Fast-track course are also printed
on your class schedule/ fee receipt obtained at the Admissions/ Records
Office.
