Withdrawing, Adding, and Auditing Courses

The procedures for withdrawing, adding, and auditng courses are described below.

Withdrawing and Adding Courses


Withdraw

To withdraw from a course, you may use SCC Connection or complete a Registration Add/Drop Form. Bring the completed form to the Registration Office.

  • By officially withdrawing from a course before the end of the 10th week of classes, you will receive a 'W' on your transcript.
  • Do not stop attending a course without officially withdrawing or you will receive an 'F' grade for the course(s).
  • The add/drop form must be submitted to the Registration Office by the stated withdrawal dates for a given term. Withdrawal dates can be found in the credit course schedule, at the Registration Office, and on the Academic Calendar.
  • The Tuition Refund Policy can be found by selecting the appropriate term on the Academic Calendar and scrolling below the calendar.

Add
To add a course, complete the Registration Add/Drop Form. Courses can only be added during open registration dates.

Auditing a Course

If you wish to attend a course without taking an examination or receiving credit for the course, you may register on an audit basis by completing the Registration Form and selecting the audit section on the form.

Students who register on an audit basis will pay the regular tuition rate and must meet the course prerequisites or receive special permission from the instructor.

If you wish to change from audit to credit or from credit to audit after the course is underway, you must process the change through the Admissions Office before the specified date for a particular term. Dates are prorated for courses less than 16 weeks in duration. Students cannot count audited courses to establish full-time or part-time status.
