Course Withdrawal Definition and Penalty

For purposes of clarification, a course withdrawal applies to CTC college-level courses in which the student is officially enrolled in the course as of census date and the course will be reflected on the student’s transcript with a non-punitive grade of W. Courses with grades of A B, C, D, F, IP, N or P are earned and are not included in the six-limit course drop.

Once a student has six (6) withdrawals that do not qualify for an exception the student may not be permitted to drop future courses, and the student will receive the grade earned in the course. If a student withdraws from a CTC course that exceeded the "six-drop" limit, the withdrawal will be removed and the faculty member of the associated course will be contacted to issue the appropriate grade.
