Enrollment: Dropping a class after the 7th-week deadline and before the 12th-week deadline (Late Drop)
Students may use up to two late drops before earning 60 hours. Students who have 60 or more earned hours are permitted one late drop.
- Go to Student Central > My Classes > Enrollment: Drop Classes. Select the correct semester.
- When your schedule appears on the screen, you must click the red “Click here to Drop a class for a closed enrollment term” button or the system will generate an error message.
- Follow the prompts to generate the drop form.
- Email the generated Late Course Drop PDF drop form to the College of Arts and Sciences Student Affairs Office from your FSU email address prior to 11:59 p.m. on the posted 12th-week deadline associated with the course in question. Note that summer sessions have prorated 12th-week deadlines.
- If you are using your late drop to drop your only course during a given semester, you should initiate the withdrawal by emailing College of Arts and Sciences Student Affairs Office before 11:59 p.m. on the 12th-week deadline associated with the course in question from your FSU email address. Note that summer sessions have prorated 12th-week deadlines. You should state that you wish to initiate a semester withdrawal for your only course using your late drop.
- Once the posted 12th-week deadline has passed for a given semester/summer session, you may only petition for course drops/withdrawals based on medical, mental health, or documented unforeseen personal hardship.
