Tuition Assessment Deadlines
Drop and withdrawal deadlines arrive quickly in summer!
The drop and withdrawal windows for the summer terms are the same percentage of time as the spring and fall semester periods. However, they close more quickly due to the shorter terms. In a four-week term, for example, the drop date deadline is the third day of the course.
