Adds/Drops/Withdrawals
Students desiring a schedule change have the following options — add a course, drop a course, withdraw from a course or completely withdraw from college. If you are unable to complete the course(s) for which you have registered, it is your responsibility, not that of your instructor, to formally withdraw from the course(s). Failure to do so will result in your receiving a performance grade, usually an “F.” A “stop payment” order on your check does not drop you from your classes.
Should you have any questions about how to add or drop a course, you may contact an advisor in the Advising and Counseling Center, Room S113, or ask your question via an e-mail to bhcAdvising@dcccd.edu.
Stop by the Advising Center, Room S113, for a Brookhaven College Add/Drop Form.
Here are some important points to keep in mind:
- Withdrawal is allowed each term during the period after the close of Registration through the add/drop/withdrawal deadline.
- Students may add or drop courses only after the full tuition payment is completely processed through the Brookhaven College Business Office.
- Students should pay close attention to the days and meeting times for classes.
- Students who have enrolled and paid for classes during priority or regular registration may add open classes during extended registration as long as the class has not met for the second time.
- Requested class changes must be initiated through contact with the Advising/Registration Offices during the time specified in the current Class Schedule.
- You may contact an advisor in the Advising and Counseling Center, Room S113, or send an e-mail to bhcAdvising@dcccd.edu to schedule an appointment.
- No change is complete until it has been appropriately processed through the registration system.
- An Add/Drop Form may be obtained from the Admissions Office in the Student Services Center, Room S041.
- To completely or partially withdraw from college requires an exit interview with an advisor.
- Students may not drop a course by e-mail or telephone notification.
NOTE: If you are a financial aid recipient and you withdraw from all courses prior to the completion of 60 percent of the semester, you may have to re-pay a portion of funding received. For further information, contact the Scholarships/Financial Aid Office, Student Services Center, Room S015, or send an e-mail to bhcScholarshipFinAid@dcccd.edu.
Dropping By Proxy
If circumstances prevent you from dropping or withdrawing, you may have another person drop your enrollment form by proxy.
Any person designated as your proxy must have:
- Your written authorization to complete the drop or withdrawal procedure on your behalf. See paragraph above for the drop or withdrawal procedures;
- Your fully completed Brookhaven College Drop/Withdrawal Form; and
- Your proper identification that has a photograph, e.g. Driver License or passport.
