April 14 is the last day to drop classes for the spring semester.
To officially withdraw from a class, students need to get a drop slip from an instructor or counselor, get it signed by the instructor and then submit it to the admissions and records office.
Drop slips will be accepted until 7 p.m. that day in Room 216 of Fletcher Administration Center.
The 80th Texas Legislature passed SB 1231 limiting the number of classes students can drop to six during their undergraduate career, according to Web site http://www.accd.edu/sac/admrec/drops.htm.
The legislation applies to students who enrolled for the first time in the fall 2007 semester.
Martin Ortega, director of admission and records, said that there are exceptions to this rule such as death in the family, change of work schedule, severe illness or military duties.
In addition, dropping classes can result in students being penalized by the "three-peat rule."
Students who enroll in the same college-level course for the third time will pay out-of-state tuition rates, which are about three times as high as in-district rates.
