What is the difference between dropping/adding a course and withdrawing from a course?
During the first week of classes students may make schedule changes by either dropping a course, adding a course, or both. After the first week of classes, students may only withdraw from a course, another course can not be added. Students can withdraw from classes from week 2 through week 4 without penalty. After week 4, a course drop will result in a failure for that course and will be listed as son on your transcript.
