MSC publishes a statement in the class schedule stating the student is responsible for all charges incurred unless he/she officially withdraws within the first two weeks of classes.  MSC will make every effort to cancel an enrollment due to non-attendance. During the Add/Drop period, instructors are required to submit no-show rosters for non-attendance so no charges are incurred by the student.  No shows should be completed in CampusConnect within the first 10 days of a regular semester or 5 days during the summer semester or after the first class during shorter sessions.

After the add/drop period, instructors should administratively withdraw students for non-attendance (with the student being charged tuition and receiving a grade of AW) through the 52nd day of a 16-week semester and proportional times for shorter terms.  No withdrawals are permitted during the last two weeks of a regular term or a proportional time for shorter terms except complete withdrawals from the college unless extraordinary circumstances are documented and approved by the Vice President of Academic Affairs.  Any student who stops attending a course(s) and does not officially withdraw from the course(s) will receive a failing grade in the course(s).  The procedure to administratively withdraw students is as follows:

1. Complete the Change of Registration (Add/Drop) Form and write administrative withdrawal on the form.
2. List the last date of the student’s attendance.
3. Submit Change of Registration (Add/Drop) Form, along with a copy of the previously submitted Success Plan to the Retention Coordinator for processing.
