Dropping a class with a waitlisted status.
Camille Johnson
Hi Cristina! These steps also work for dropping waitlist classes.
Please be aware that there are deadlines to drop classes using this method, which can be found on the registration guides on the Registration and Records website (http://records.fullerton.edu/registration/registrationguides.php). The deadline to drop via Titan Online was February 6.
If you need further assistance, you can contact Registration and Records at: http://records.fullerton.edu/contact/index.php
Anh Dinh
I am trying to drop a class that starts 3/11 and its withdraw dates are from now till 3/24th without a grade of “W”. I've been trying but I keep getting the message:
"You cannot drop this class at this time, the deadline to self-drop has passed. You must submit a Student Course Withdrawal request."
How can I do that?
Camille Johnson
Hi Anh! more information about the Student Course Withdrawal Request, as well as a link to the actual form can be found at: http://records.fullerton.edu/services/withdrawal.php
Celeste
I dropped the classes successfully, do I need to fill out a different form/take different steps to get a refund? Or is it automatic?
Camille Johnson
Hi Celeste! Refunds are automatically generated for eligible students who drop online before the deadline. You're eligible for a partial refund if you go from full-time to part-time status or a full refund if you drop all classes. If you have additional questions, you can contact Student Business Services at [email protected].
Ann Adajar
For summer of 2023 when is the final dropped date?
Camille Johnson
Hi Ann! It depends on what summer session the class is scheduled for. Please view the Summer 2023 important deadlines page for information on drop deadlines: https://extension.fullerton.edu/summer/dates.aspx
Maile Kahananui
I am trying to unenroll from Fullerton and one of my classes won't unenroll me or let me drop from the course, how should I go around fixing this? It is a prerequisite course.
Camille Johnson
Hi Maile! The section might be set up in a way that permission is required to drop. Some GEs are set up this way. You can contact Registration and Records at [email protected] or 657-278-7601 to request that you be administratively dropped from the class. When you contact them, please provide your CWID and the course information (course number. section and/or class number).
Griselda Valdez
Hi! I am a student at Cal Poly Humboldt enrolled in a CSU Fully Online class and the system will not let me drop the course. I've called the office and left to messages and no one has contacted me back. I need to figure this out as soon as possible because of the deadline
Camille Johnson
Hi Griselda! If you are encountering issues dropping the course and haven't been able to reach Registration and Records by phone, you may fare better sending them an email at [email protected] or using their helpdesk which you can find on their website at: https://records.fullerton.edu/contact/index.php
