Course/College Withdrawal and Change of Schedule

Students may withdraw from a class through the 14th week of class for the fall and winter semester and through the sixth week for the summer semester. To withdraw, complete the Change of Schedule Form and return it to the Records Office in Student Services. The web registration module may be used during the official Add/Drop period. A grade of "W" is assigned on the student's transcript for these courses.

Students who stop attending classes but do not officially withdraw receive the grade of "E" at the end of the semester.

Cancellation of Classes

Cancellation of on-campus classes due to severe weather or other conditions will be announced by the college through area radio and TV stations. Day class cancellation will normally be announced by 6:30 a.m. Evening class cancellation will normally be announced by 5 p.m.

Cancellation of off-campus classes due to severe weather will be regulated by the specific public school system hosting the college courses. For example, if Cheboygan Public Schools are closed, NCMC classes held in Cheboygan are cancelled. You should be aware of the status of the school system where your course is held and listen to media announcements for updates on school cancellations.

Campus cancellations are posted on the web www.ncmich.edu and on campus via NIC(News and Information Center).
