Dear Students,
The College has continued to closely monitor conditions on campus today with regard to air quality as a result of the wildfire smoke in the area. Out of an abundance of caution, the College will move to remote operations beginning today (Weds 9/21) at 3:30 pm PST through tomorrow, end of day (Thurs 9/22).
This means that the physical campus is closed but all campus services for students will be available online/remotely.
Here is how the next few days will look:
Wednesday, September 21st (today starting at 3:30pm PST)
Thursday, September 22nd (tomorrow)
-
All campus services will remain open and offered remotely between 8am – 9am, and 11:30am – 5pm. If you come to campus, there will be signage outside each service area with instructions on how to connect to support.
-
Campus services will be closed 9am – 11:30am for staff to attend campus activities.
The College will continue to closely monitor air conditions tomorrow to determine campus modality for Friday, September 23rd.
Thank you,
Greg Cranson

Hi Students,
Are you considering dropping a class? View this message on the web!
You can drop classes after the quarter starts, however, you will need to get instructor permission and you will be charged a $15 add/drop fee. Dropping will result in a “W” showing on your transcript for withdrawal, and it will not count in computing your GPA.
The last day to drop a course this quarter with a “W” is July 28, 2022. After this date, no “W” will be given.
Please check with Financial Aid before deciding to drop a course as your aid may be impacted.
If you are utilizing GI Bill benefits, please be sure to check in with the Veteran & Military Student Services Office before dropping any classes.
To withdraw from a class, follow these steps:
- Email your instructor from your email address on file requesting permission to withdraw.
- When you receive a reply granting permission, forward that response to enrollmentservices@shoreline.edu
- When you forward that message make sure you include:
- Your full name
- Your ctcLink ID number
- The name & item number of the course
- A statement asking to be withdrawn from that class
Need assistance? Contact the Advising Center to make an appointment with an academic advisor.
