Trying to Drop course for DNC.
Hello, I've been attempting to drop my course to achieve DNC, however it keeps saying I don't have permission. I thought the last date to drop was Friday 2025/03/14. Do I have to speak to the student advisor before being able to actually do this?

To drop a course after the first three weeks of the semester, you will need to contact your program coordinator. They will send you an email with the required form. Once you receive it, complete the form and submit it as a reply. The request should then be processed accordingly.
While handling the paperwork may seem tedious, this is the only way to withdraw from a course beyond the initial drop period. It’s important to note that a “Did Not Complete” (DNC) on your transcript is not taken lightly by employers or academic institutions. If a potential employer or university reviews your transcript, they may inquire about the DNC and expect an explanation.
That said, not all jobs require a transcript during the hiring process. However, if a position does request one, you should be prepared to address any concerns regarding the DNC.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
You should reach out to Seneca service desk this week if you have a class in person today or tomorrow. They will have a lot more details of the full process.
I believe the hard deadline to drop a course is in a few days.
