Q32: Can I drop a subject after the Add/Drop Period?

You are not allowed to drop any subjects after the Add/Drop Period. If you have a genuine need to withdraw from a subject after the Add/Drop Period, you should submit an application for withdrawal of subjects to your programme offering department. Such request will first be considered by the subject teacher concerned and followed by the programme leader if there are strong justifications and when the tuition fee of the semester concerned has been settled. Deadline for requests for subject withdrawal will be specified by the subject offering department and in any case, it will not be entertained after the commencement of the examination period. For approved cases, the tuition fees paid for the withdrawn subjects will not be refunded. The withdrawn subjects will be shown under the "Assessment Result" of eStudent and in the transcript of studies. Please refer to the Student Handbook for details.
