    Definitions   

Course Drop
Course drop refers to students formally removing themselves from a course before 5:00 p.m. on the second Friday of the semester, Summer schedule is different than semester schedule.  Courses can be dropped thru the second Friday of the semester (for Fall 2010  - September 17).  A drop applies to one course at a time and does not assume withdrawal from the University.  A course drop is not reflected on the student's official transcript.  Students who discontinue a course without following official drop procedures receive a grade of "F". Dropping a course may have implications on your financial aid and student account.  It is advised that you contact the Financial Aid and Student Accounts offices before dropping a course or courses.

Course Withdrawal
Course withdrawal refers to students formally removing themselves from a course after the second Friday of the semester and before the deadline to withdraw from a course expires (for Fall 2010 - September 17).  A course withdrawal relates to one course at a time and not complete withdrawal from the University.  A course withdrawal is reflected on the student's transcript as a grade of "W" and is included in attempted credits when monitoring satisfactory academic progress for financial aid purposes.  A student cannot withdraw on the MyUSF.  The withdraw must be completed in the Office of the Registrar.  Withdrawing from a course may have implications on your financial aid and student account.  It is advised that you contact the Financial Aid and Student Accounts offices before withdrawing from a course or courses.
