Dropping A Class
Deadlines:
Until the Friday of the tenth week of class (or Friday of the fourth week in a six-week summer session, or Friday of the second week of a three-week summer session), students may withdraw from individual courses. Deadlines are published in the University Schedule of Courses each semester. If you follow all established University procedures and withdraw before the published deadline, you will receive a W on your transcript. Grade-point averages are not affected in any way by this mark.
If you need to drop the last class you are enrolled in, then you must withdraw from the current term; please visit the website for details on Withdrawal Policies.
Procedures:
Before dropping individual classes, consult your advisor to determine if:
- Your course load would be reduced below the minimal requirements set by your college or school. If so, you must get permission from the Committee on Academic Standards of your college or school.
- Your course load would be reduced below the minimal number of hours required to qualify for financial aid, varsity athletic competition, or international full-time student status;
- The courses to be dropped are required to fulfill academic probationary conditions;
The courses from which you want to withdraw might be corequisite with other courses you are taking, or prerequisite to other courses required for the next term. After reviewing these parameters with your advisor, then you may drop individual classes using the web registration system.
Enrollment Verification
Enrollment Verification can be obtained by logging in to your MIX account and going to the National Student Clearinghouse website located under the Registration link (http://www.mix.wvu.edu). If unable to do so, please print a Verification of Enrollment Request Form .
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)
Annually, West Virginia University informs students of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. This Act, with which West Virginia University intends to comply fully, was designed to protect the privacy of education records, to establish the right of students to inspect and review their education records, and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal and formal hearings.
