The academic calendar shows a drop deadline “without academic penalty” and then another one later on. What does this mean?
A Basically “without academic penalty” means you do not have to get the instructor’s permission to drop. After that deadline, up to the final drop deadline (see Academic Calendar for exact dates) you will need the instructor’s signature in order to drop the class. The instructor has the right to refuse.
