Notes

1 - Terms of a duration less than a regular semester will have different drop dates. Schedule adjustment or 100% refund on a drop.

Eight-week Terms: the first week of the term.

Short Courses: before 5 p.m. on the second day of class for Internet classes or before 5 p.m. on the next regular work day after the first class session for other classes.

2 - Login to MyTCC to add, drop, or pay daily. When a College Holiday falls during the semester, if the scheduled classes do not meet, additional class time or assignments may make up the difference.

Add, Drop, or Withdraw Dates

Stay informed about crucial deadlines for making changes to your class schedule.
