Add Policy
Before you submit the Add/Drop Petition, please carefully review
the following information.
Students are expected to add courses using My Sac State or
calling (916) 278-6984 during regular 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. business
hours prior to the first day of class. A late registration fee of
$25 may be applied for registering after the course has started.
During the first 10% of class, you may add courses without
needing special approval.
After 10% of your class has elapsed (for full semester classes:
after the second week of the semester) you will be required to
submit the Add Petition form.
Through the first 25% of class (for full semester classes: until
Census Date)
Add requests require the approval of the instructor and
department chair. You need to obtain the instructor’s approval
either by having them sign your add petition or having them email
your program coordinator directly with their written approval. It
is your responsibility to ask the instructor to email the program
coordinator. You must also obtain approval from the campus
department chair (or designee) in the same manner.
Adds after the first 25% of class (for full semester classes:
after Census Date)
Adds are not approved unless you present evidence of university
error that prevented your timely registration. University error
does not include failure to meet all payment deadlines. State
your reasons for a late add request on a separate page and attach
the Add/Drop Petition along with verification of the
circumstances.
You will need to obtain the instructor’s approval either by
having them sign your Add Petition or having them email your
program coordinator directly with their written approval. It is
your responsibility to ask the instructor to email the program
coordinator. You must also obtain approval from the campus
department chair (or designee) in the same manner.
The petition should be submitted to your CCE program coordinator.
Drop Policy
Although instructors may exercise their authority to
administratively remove any student who fails to attend during
the initial period of instruction, students should not assume
they will be dropped. It is the responsibility of the student to
drop themselves from the course or petition to drop after the
deadline.
Not attending or not logging into class does not automatically
drop you from the course nor does it remove your responsibility
to drop yourself from the course. Students will receive a final
grade of “F” or “WU” in courses they fail to drop officially.
Students who wish to withdraw from all courses should fill out
the
Semester Withdrawal Form.
During the first 10% of your class (for full semester classes:
through the second week of the semester) you may drop online in
the My Sac State Student Center or by calling CCE Enrollment
Services during regular 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. business hours at (916)
278-6984.
After 10% of your class has elapsed (for full semester classes:
after the second week of the semester) you will be required to
submit the Drop Petition. Depending on what point you are
dropping after 10% of the class has elapsed, you are required to
obtain and submit specific documentation:
Through the first 25% of your class (for full semester classes:
until Census Date)
You need to obtain the instructor’s approval either by having
them sign your drop petition or having them email your program
coordinator directly with their written approval for you to drop.
It is your responsibility to ask the instructor to email the
program coordinator. You must also obtain the campus department
chair’s (or designee’s) approval in the same manner.
After the first 25% through the first 40% of your class (for full
semester classes: from Census through the 6th week of the
semester)
You will need to follow the above procedures to submit your Drop
Petition with both instructor and chair (or designee) approval,
and also attach documentation of “serious and compelling” reasons
why you need to drop.
After the first 40% of your class (for full semester classes:
after the 6th week of the semester)
Drops are only approved due to career or medical related reasons
beyond the control of the student (a student initiated job
change, carrying an excessive work load or inadequate preparation
does not qualify). The petition with all approvals including the
College Dean’s (or designee’s) approval and documentation as
outlined above must be submitted.
After 75% of the class has elapsed (for full semester classes:
after the 8th week of the semester)
Drops are not permitted except in cases of documented emergencies
beyond the student’s control which occur after 75% of the class
elapsed. The petition with approvals and documentation must be
submitted as outlined above. It is not possible to withdraw after
the last day of instruction in a class.
The petition and documentation should be submitted to your CCE
program coordinator.
If you are not admitted to Sacramento State you can drop a class
by phone, mail or in person.
To drop by phone:
Call (916) 278-6984
To drop by mail or in person:

Refunds
Obtaining approval to drop a class does not grant you an
automatic refund of course fees. Use the CCE Refund
Application to request one.
Refunds are still issued per your program’s refund policy.
Generally, refunds are allowed according to the following
timeline:
If you drop before the class starts, you will get a full refund
minus a $10 processing fee.
If you drop any time within the first 25% of the course,
including the first day of class, you will get a 65% refund minus
a $10 processing fee. If you have not paid for your course yet,
you will still owe the other 35% of your tuition. This fee will
remain due on your account.
If you drop after the first 25% of the class has elapsed, you
will not receive a refund. If you have not paid for your course,
all fees will remain due on your account.
If you dropped after the full or partial refund deadline and
would like to request a refund, please contact your program
coordinator and submit a refund request online here.
Again, not attending or not logging into your class does not
remove your responsibility to pay your course fees if you are
still officially enrolled.
