WITHDRAW FROM COURSES

Registration Guide
Registration and the Bridge

Use the Bridge to withdraw from one or more of your courses following the extended drop deadline.

You will be assessed full fees for the courses in which you were registered. Keep in mind that if you withdraw from a course, you will receive a 'W' on your transcript.

How to Drop or Withdraw from a Class

Please note: Prior to changing your registration, make sure to check any registration deadlines and review policies to ensure there are no unexpected impacts of financial aid or academic standing. The deadlines for withdrawal are found in the Academic Schedule. 

  1. Log into the Bridge.
  2. Click on the Bridge for Students link to be taken to the Student Dashboard, navigate to the Academic Essentials section, and select Class Registration and Schedule.
  3. Under the registration page select Register for classes, select the term and click continue.
  4. Review your course information that is displayed in the Plan/Summary window in the bottom right.
  5. Under the Action heading click the drop-down menu and select the DROP or WITHDRAW option.
  6. To confirm your registration changes, select the dark grey submit button located at the bottom on the right-hand side of the screen.
Late Withdrawal (WL)

Late Withdrawal is granted only in the case of serious illness or other extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the student, which makes it impossible for the student to withdraw from courses prior to the withdrawal deadline. The grade designation for a late withdrawal is ‘WL’. For admitted students, the ‘WL’ is recorded only upon application to and approval from the Faculty or School advising office after the withdrawal deadline. Late withdrawal requests will not be accepted prior to the withdrawal deadline and will only be accepted until the extended drop deadline of the subsequent term. For Open Studies students, the ‘WL’ is recorded only upon application to and approval from Student Enrolment and Registrar Services (SEARS). Withdrawing from courses may effect registration for future terms. Courses that receive ‘WL’ will not meet prerequisites for subsequent courses. A student seeking Late Withdrawal means withdrawing from all the courses in that term.
