    FALL 2024 WITHDRAWAL DEADLINE 

    November 27 is the last day to withdraw from Fall semester 2024 full-term classes. RCTC strongly recommends that you work with your advisor or counselor before withdrawing from college to achieve the best possible outcomes for your circumstances. Also, you must notify the following offices if you are receiving benefits from them: 

    How to Withdraw:  

    Online: Withdraw on the eServices site until 11pm. 

    In Person: Withdraw at the RCTC Admissions and Registration counter until 5pm. Students with “holds” must withdraw in person. 

    Deadlines for short-term courses are available on the RCTC website. 

    Note: Withdrawals do not affect GPA but do impact completion rate, which may affect satisfactory academic progress. 

     

    REGISTER NOW FOR SPRING CLASSES! 

    • Get the schedule YOU want! Get the courses you NEED!
    • Avoid wrong courses! Schedule an appointment with your academic advisor to review your degree plan.
    • Handle any roadblocks early. Starting early gives you time to resolve any issues like holds or financial aid errors. 

     

    SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH YOUR ADVISOR 

    Use AdvisorVue to schedule appointments. Log in with your STAR ID and password to see available times. For assistance, contact the Advising Center at 507-285-7260.
