Fall Academic Calendar Footnotes
Students are responsible for class prerequisites, academic calendar deadlines, services information, and registration procedures.
1 Use the following percentages to calculate deadlines for classes that meet for less than the full term:
- Last date to drop with a refund: 8% of class meeting times
- Last date to add: 20% of class meeting times
- Last date to drop a class without a W (Census Date): 20% of class meeting times
- Last date to apply for CR/NC: 30% of class meeting times
- Last date to withdraw with a W: 75% of class meeting times
If the class meets for 10 meetings or less, the class must be dropped prior to start of class to be eligible for a refund.
2 The non-resident tuition and enrollment fees differ from resident fees. The deadline to drop with a refund also differs. Please see the Fees Chart for information concerning non-resident tuition refund deadlines.
3 The Application for Fall 2008 Graduation (Associate of Art degree, Associate of Science degree, or Certificate of Achievement) is available from and should be submitted directly to the Office of Admissions and Records or may be submitted via the student's WebAdvisor account. Applications received after the deadline will be processed for the next term.
Schedule for Registration
Continuing students are assigned the earliest registration times and appointments based on having a declared academic
program (major) and by the number of Ohlone units earned toward that program. Specific dates and times are emailed
to students in April.
New and former students receive the next earliest block of registration times but do not receive specific appointments.
K-12 students desiring to enroll in Ohlone classes receive the last opportunity to register, starting approximately two weeks prior to the
beginning of the term.
