Class Schedule Changes: Add/Drop Procedures and Considerations

Changes in class schedules may be made during formal registration until the class meets for the first time. Full-time students (12 hours or more) may add/drop a course through an academic advisor or counselor. Full-time and part-time students are required to add through their academic advisor; drops can be made through their advisor or the Admissions/Registration office. Please note that adds and drops may affect a student’s financial aid, academic scholarship, athletic eligibility, student visa status, and/or private insurance coverage.

Drop/Refund Policy for DACC Courses: Students who drop a course before completing 10% of the total class will receive a refund of all tuition and course fees paid or payable. However, once a student has completed 10% of the total class, no refund will be issued.  During the semester, due to holidays, the drop date may fall on a Saturday or Sunday. If that happens, students or faculty can only drop the class using the Self-Service card in myDACC, as DACC offices are closed.

Students should always check with Financial Aid and their advisor before dropping from a class to determine the impact.

Please remember that it is the student's responsibility to drop themselves from any classes using the Self-Service card in myDACC or through the Admissions and Advisement offices.

All students should be aware of the consequences of dropping a course BEFORE they officially drop it.
