Late Drop or Withdrawal from the Semester?
If you are dropping ALL COURSES for the current semester, use the petition to Withdraw from the Semester.
Continue attending class during the late drop procedure. For Late Drops submitted through week 13 of the semester, the decision will be sent via a mySJSU message within one week of submission. However, it may take up to three weeks or longer for your approval to show up on your official records. Instructor’s signature and submission of the petition does not guarantee approval!
Read the information below before completing a Late Drop Petition:
