Class Attendance and Administrative Withdrawal

Return to: Academic Services and Enrollment Policies  

Administrative Drop/Withdrawal

Brazosport College reserves the right to drop/withdraw a student from classes if, in the judgment of college officials, this action is in the best interest of the student or the college.

Administrative Drop of students for non-attendance

Students who do not begin to participate in a course in which they are registered, whether the course is offered in a face-to-face, hybrid, or online format, will be administratively dropped for non-attendance.

Brazosport College is committed to serving its students and maintaining accurate enrollment records. 
The College is required to determine whether a student participated in a course in order to correctly report enrollment to state and federal agencies and to administer federal Student Aid, Veterans Administration benefits, and other federal, state, institutional, and private aid programs. Administratively dropping students who never begin participating in a course increases the accuracy of our reported enrollments.

Administrative Drop Process

The Office of Admissions and Registrar will administratively drop students reported by faculty as non-attending. Administratively dropped students will be removed from the course roster in the student information system, the learning management system and other systems as required. The course will not appear on the student’s transcript.
The Business Office will reverse all institutional charges related to a course from which a student is administratively dropped. The Office of Financial Aid will make any necessary adjustments to a student’s award package based on the enrollment change, and the Veterans Administration (VA) Certifying Official will update enrollment certifications as necessary
