Academic Options for Students with Extenuating Circumstances

Sometimes there are life circumstances outside a student's control that significanty impact their classes. If you are worried about not being able to complete a course (or all courses), because of extenuating circumstances, you have options!

Before the end of Week 6, students can drop a class or withdraw from the quarter. From Week 7 until the end of finals, you still have options!

Please review these Academic Options for Students with Extenuating Circumstances for different options to consider, and reach out to us in Eighth College Academic Advising for guidance.
