Guided by the principles of Ignatian discernment, the Academic Advising Center supports students throughout their Boston College academic journey. We help ensure students meet all Core Curriculum requirements while guiding them to academic programs aligned with their interests and talents.
Course Withdrawals
The deadline to withdraw from a course for the Fall 2024 semester is Monday, December 2, 2024. If you withdraw from a course, you will have a W grade permanently recorded in your academic record. A grade of W has no effect on your GPA, but you may incur credit deficiencies.
Please carefully review the "Course Withdrawals: What You Need to Know" document before making a decision to withdraw from a course.
*First-Year Students Only
All first-year students (Class of 2028) are required to meet with an AAC staff member to discuss their course withdrawal request before their request is approved. If you fail to meet with an AAC staff member, your withdrawal request will not be processed.
The AAC will be hosting drop-in hours for these meetings on the following day:
Monday, December 2nd
9:30 AM - 4:30 PM
Stokes South 139
Please be aware that there may be a wait.
First-year students who have already met with their advisor and have more in-depth questions may make an advising appointment with their Academic Administrator.
