Charges for courses dropped through the fifth day of the semester are removed from your bill and the course(s) will not appear on your academic transcript.

Charges for full-term courses dropped after the fifth day of the semester are not removed from your bill and the course(s) will appear with a “W” grade on your academic transcript to indicate they are in a withdrawal status.
