Monday, November 28 is the last day to request an S/U (Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory) grade or withdraw from a class (W grade). November 28 is also the last day to withdraw from the College with X grades (applies to all full-term courses).  Mod course deadlines differ – refer to the online Student Calendar for more information.

Please be mindful of the possible implications for transferability of S/U grades. Both grading options may also impact eligibility for Excelsior. Please check with Financial Aid for questions related to Excelsior.

All forms are located on the Registration & Records Forms page (from the NCCC homepage click Academics, Registration & Records, Forms).

Withdraw from a Class – To drop a course and receive a W (withdrawal) grade as a final grade, complete the electronic – Drop or Withdraw from a Courseform.

Withdraw from College (All Classes) – To withdraw online from the college and receive “X” grades for ALL of your current courses, complete the electronic Withdrawal From Collegeform.  If you completed any modular courses, you will receive the grade earned and “W” grades will be applied to all other college coursework.

• Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U) Grades – To elect to receive a final grade of S/U in a course, students must submit the electronic S/U grade requestform which will also require approvals from the course instructor and the student’s advisor. Selecting the S/U option may be beneficial to students in certain circumstances; however, students should be aware of the impact on course loads in future semesters, financial aid/academic standing implications, and the transferability of S/U grades.

If you have any questions, please email records@niagaracc.suny.edu or stop by the Enrollment Center in A-105.
