Are you thinking about dropping a class?

Dropping a class now will result in a “W” showing on your transcript for withdrawal, but it will not count in computing your GPA. If you choose to drop a class, you will be charged a $15 add/drop fee.

The last day to drop a class this quarter with a “W” is August 1, 2024. After this date, no “W” will be given.


Are You Receiving Financial Aid?
Please check with the Financial Aid office before dropping any classes as your aid may be impacted.   

Are You Receiving GI Bill Benefits?
Please check in with the Veteran & Military Student Services Office before dropping any classes as your benefits may be impacted.


To drop a class: 

  1. Email your instructor and ask for permission to drop. 
  2. Email the name & number of the course you’d like to drop, along with your instructor’s permission, to Enrollment Services at EnrollmentServices@Shoreline.edu and we will process the drop for you.  

Need help planning your courses? Contact the Advising Center to make an appointment with an academic advisor.

The Enrollment Services team would like to invite all students to stop by FOSS (the 5000 building) to have your photo taken and get your Shoreline ID card printed.

Getting your ID typically takes just a few minutes (depending on how busy we are) and then you’ll be all set if you are ever asked for verification that you are a student. It’s best to get this complete within your first month at Shoreline.

This also provides you identification for student discounts from some local businesses.

This summer, ID cards are available Monday – Wednesday from 9 – 11 or 2 – 4.

For any questions please stop by the FOSS Welcome Desk or email navigate@shoreline.edu.

Dear Students,

During the heat wave this week, please see the following tips and guidelines for staying safe:

Heat Safety Tips 

  • Make a conscious effort to ensure proper hydration and ventilation. 
    • Drink plenty of water and have a beverage with you at all times.
    • Don’t wait until you are thirsty to drink.
    • Avoid drinks with caffeine and/or large amounts of sugar which can increase dehydration.
  • Take regular breaks as needed in cooler areas where possible.
    • If you’re on campus, you can visit Bldg. 4000, 6000, or 9000; all of which are equipped with air conditioning. 
  • Call campus security if you or someone else believes they are experiencing a heat related illness (206-235-5860).
    • Campus security carries emergency cooling, water, and hydration supplies.
    • Campus security can help coordinate a medical response for assessment by EMTs should it be necessary.

Contact campus security for any injury or medical incident that occurs on campus for assistance and documentation purposes.
