  2. After logging in click on the “Students” tab on the right hand side of the webpage
  3. On the left side of the following webpage, there is a section titled “Registration”. There one should click on the link “Register for Sections.”
  4. Click on the link “Drop Sections.”
  5. In the section where it reads “Action”, one will click on the drop down box then click on “Remove from List.”
  6. Click on the classes one desires to drop and then click submit.

Take note that seven days after the fall or spring semester starts is the last day students can withdraw from any class with a 100 percent refund. The last day to withdraw from any class with a 'W' is 12 weeks into the semester. The last day to register late for classes is seven days after the semester has started. Check the Kean University calendar for more information about withdrawing from classes.
