Learn about how to drop, add and withdraw from classes.
When is the deadline to register or add a class?
The deadline to register or add a class is the day before the class begins.
If you attempt to register for a course that has already started, you will receive a Late Registration error.
You will need the instructor's permission to register after the deadline. HACC encourages instructors to permit late registrations for students who demonstrate a reasonable chance of success.
How do I officially withdraw from my courses?
If you are unable to attend courses for the semester, you may officially withdraw from the college either online through myHACC or by submitting a Drop/Add/Withdrawal form to the campus Welcome Center.
When can I drop a course?
The last day to drop a course will vary based on the start and end dates of your course. Review the deadlines to drop courses.
When is my drop effective?
Drops are effective the date you initiate the drop online. Drop requests submitted on a paper form are processed with an effective based on the date your completed Drop/Add/Withdrawal form (pdf) is received in the Welcome Center. HACC requires instructor approval (signature and grade) after the refund deadline.

How do I drop or withdraw if I have veterans education benefits?

Please note: Dropping/withdrawing may affect your Veterans Education benefits.
How will my health insurance be affected if I drop or withdraw?
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act allows you to remain covered under your parents' insurance until age 26 —unless you have access to employer-based insurance. Learn more about the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (pdf).
Will my health career program clinical candidacy be affected?
Withdrawing from courses (as well as getting a D or F grade) may negatively affect your clinical candidacy. See your advisor for more information.
