Dropping a Class

<p>Hey everyone,</p>

<p>I just got into UNC Chapel Hill OOS (!!!!! soooo happy :) ) and I was just wondering, would it be worth calling up UNC and asking to drop one of my classes?? I want to drop Digital Photography II, it's one of my electives and I didn't add it to my schedule until November, because I needed a full year of art for one of my schools (which I'm not going to go to anyways, because I will most likely go to UNC). I, of course, would obviously not drop the class if it would affect my decision whatsoever, but do you think they'll let me drop it? And who should I call to ask about this...admissions?</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>I think it doesn't hurt to try, but keep in mind that school is almost over.</p>

<p>Yeah, but it's a semester course and I only have 3 more absence left before I absence out (which means an F!!) Obviously I will have no choice but to drop the class if I even get close to absencing out, but if it means dropping the class would affect my decision to UNC, I would do anything to not miss a single class for the rest of the year</p>

<p>...it would be nice to drop it too for senior cut day (the day after prom weekend) :)</p>

<p>izzy - be forewarned...dropping a class or changing your schedule in any way is grounds for rescindment. Not saying UNC-CH would do it, but it could happen. And UNC-CH does send out warning letters to those who drop classes after midterm, so I'm inclined to think they take this pretty seriously.</p>

<p>does it depend on which course you're dropping digital photography FOR? i mean, if you drop an art course for a more difficult course, why would unc complain? i'd understand if they sent you a warning letter for taking study hall or something. any input?</p>

<p>I would run any changes to your schedule by Admissions and get an official approval. Most colleges consider themselves obligated to honor admissions offers only if the conditions under which the offer was extended have not changed.</p>
