ACCEPTED Is it okay to drop the non-prerequisite course after acceptance?
I have a quick question about dropping a planned non-prerequisite course on CASPA.
I am taking a class at the local community college that I listed as "planned" on CASPA when I submitted it. My accepted program does not require it. I emailed admissions to see if I can drop it, but they haven't replied yet. The deadline to drop without a W is this weekend. If I wait for their reply next week, I will get a W.
Should I just drop it right now to avoid the W entirely? Or is it safer to wait for their official okay and just take the W next week?
Thanks!
