“Students with a verified disability who may need a reasonable accommodation(s) for this class
are encouraged to notify the instructor and contact the Office for Special Services (CH 109, 323953-4000 X2270) as soon as possible. All information will remain confidential.”
The deadline to drop without a “W” is the last day of Week 2 (of the semester), which
is Sunday, September 9th for Fall 2012. If you must drop a course, drop before the
specified deadline for dropping a class without a grade of "W." Dropping after Week 2
will result in a “W” on your transcript. Effective July 1, 2012 students will only have 3
attempts to pass a class. If a student gets a "W" or grade of "D", "F", “I”, or "NP" in a
class, that will count as an attempt. A student’s past record of course attempts district
wide will also be considered. Therefore, before the end of Week 2 you should carefully
consider if you can reasonably manage this course with the other factors in your life (e.g.
work, family, course load). If you think you will not be able to complete this course with
a C or better, drop by Sunday, September 9th. If you have any questions, please don’t
hesitate to talk to me. You may also see a counselor in the Counseling Center in AD 108.
