PBSC allows their students to withdraw from a
class with a “W” after the Add/Drop period up
until a predetermined date. Palm Beach County
Schools will not allow you to enroll the next
semester if you withdraw after that date.
Be Aware!
Withdrawing after the Add/Drop period can have
a negative impact on your college admission
status and financial aid eligibility.
Keep in mind that the academic
calendar for Park Vista may not
match that of the college. The
fact that Park Vista is not in
session does not guarantee
that college classes will be
cancelled as well.
