EFFECTIVE JANUARY 2, 2012

I. Purpose

Central Piedmont Community College is a learning-centered College committed to student success. For this reason, this regulation prohibits a student from registering for a class after schedule adjustment (drop-add) unless the reason for registering late is caused by an action of the College or is due to extenuating circumstances. Authorized College personnel may grant exceptions and may give permission for late registration as specified by these regulations.

II. Regulations

A. Schedule Adjustment During Registration

During registration periods students may drop classes and may add classes that are not filled.

B. Schedule Adjustment After Classes Begin

Schedule adjustment (drop/add) period is the first and second weekday of the term or session.

C. After the Schedule Adjustment Period

Permission from the division director is required to enroll in any class after the schedule adjustment period up through the 10% date of the class, except in cases of College error.

D. After the 10% Class Census Date

Permission from the dean is required to enroll in any class after the 10% class census date. Documented extenuating circumstances must be presented before an exception is considered.

E. Classes dropped on or before the 10% census date of the class do not appear on a student's official transcript. Classes dropped after the 10% census date and prior to or on the 35% date of the course are indicated on a student's transcript with a W grade (withdrawal).
