Click the button above to start the Drop Request Form. Once the form has been submitted, the CAP Office will reach out with an official ºÚÁÏÍø drop form that needs to be signed by the student and instructor. Send the signed form back to the CAP Office by emailing cap@usi.edu.
Check the withdrawal calendars below if you are unsure of any drop deadlines. The Drop Request Form must be submitted by 4:30 p.m. Central Time the Friday prior to the CAP course's final exam/project. The Drop Request Form needs to be submitted for each CAP course you want to drop.

*A student can withdraw from a CAP course, with no impact on the ºÚÁÏÍø transcript, by emailing cap@usi.edu by the date listed in this column. The dropped course will not appear on the official ºÚÁÏÍø transcript, and the attempted credit hours will not count against a student's total number of credit hours at ºÚÁÏÍø. After the deadline for no-consequence drops has passed, a student must sign paperwork provided by the CAP Office.
**WITHOUT evaluation means a student will receive a 'W' (Withdrawal) on the ºÚÁÏÍø transcript, and the attempted hours will count against a student's total number of credit hours earned at ºÚÁÏÍø.
***WITH evaluation means a student will receive a 'W' if passing the course at the time of the withdrawal. If failing, the student may receive an 'F' at the discretion of the CAP instructor. The attempted hours will count against a student's total number of credit hours earned at ºÚÁÏÍø.
The last day to drop with evaluation is the Friday before the week the CAP course's final exam/project is given or due.

While it is preferred that the student notify CAP directly, we often rely on the instructor or guidance counselor to assist with the process.
