Add / Drop Information

For adding the Class Before the Start Date:

• Use Web4 to enroll in the class if space is available.
• If no space is available, you can use Web4 to add yourself to a waitlist. If space becomes available before the semester, you will be notified via email and provided an add code.
• If you are on the waitlist and no space becomes available, you will need to use the next set of steps (For adding the class After the Start Date):

For Adding the Class After the Start Date:

• CCSF has removed add codes as of Spring 2020
• You must use the Class Request option on the class schedule using the CRN to request an add.
• Requests are not guaranteed! I always prioritize the waitlist first and then the request list.

Dropping the Class:

• Students are encouraged to drop the class on their own ASAP to allow other students to add.
• The instructor will drop students who do not demonstrate academic contributions within the first seven days of the course. Academic contribution is usually in the form of a discussion post or quiz, depending on the instructor's assignments.
• The instructor reserves the right to drop students at any point in the semester if they do not login and contribute academic work at least once every seven days.
• Students are required to be aware of drop dates throughout the semester. CCSF Academic Calendar will include the last dates to drop with and without a W as well as last day to drop for a full refund. Students are responsible to drop the class on their own in these circumstances.
