Add/Drop Policies & Procedures
Adding a Course:
Courses may be added only during the first 10 class days of a semester (first 5 days during a summer session).
 
Dropping a Course:
During the first 10 class days of a semester:
Courses may be dropped (first 5 days during a summer session). Tuition is refunded. No grade will appear on the transcript.
After the first 10 class days, but before mid-semester:
Courses may be dropped. No refund. A "W" will appear on the transcript and will not be figured into the grade point average.
After mid-semester:
Courses may be dropped, but the Registrar will record a grade of "F". This grade will be figured into the grade point average.
The date that properly completed Add/Drop forms are received and date stamped by the Registrar's Office will be considered the official date of record. Students who do not officially drop courses within the Add/Drop period (the first 10 class days of a semester) assume all financial obligation for tuition and fees.
 
Please Note: Central Maine Community College reserves the right without notice to extend the Add/Drop period of 10 class days because of weather related cancellations or other extraordinary circumstances. Student Add/Drop requests for courses scheduled to meet for less than a full academic semester will be considered on an individual, case by case basis by the Registrar.
 
Students who find their names missing from the instructor's official class list (after the Add/Drop period) should work with the Registrar's Office to make necessary corrections in the registration records.
