Today, I got a letter confirming I had dropped out of college. I received this letter shortly after completing the 10th essay I had finished this week as a result of me deciding to finally apply myself to my schoolwork. Turns out that while dropping a class, I checked Drop All instead of Drop 1. FML

Ya know, that sounds important enough to double check what you check...

Well, considering it's a little over halfway through the semester, if you're "finally" applying yourself, you seem to be a ******* moron to begin with. Good going ********. You deserve it. psh...probably a liberal arts major too amirite?

'drop like its hot drop like its hot' YDI for not caring about your classes when you get to college

I had something like this happen once. My school makes it easy to drop and add classes online, also. The website was poorly designed and I ended up accidentally dropping all of my classes. If you go to your academic advisor and explain what happened, he/she will be able to help you add everything back. Just be sure you do it before they refund your money. With my college, it took about a week to get the refund for dropped classes.

I don't think it's possible to still drop a class this late in the semester. You'd have to withdraw from the course which means you'd have to fill out a form. But then, who knows when you actually wrote this FML? Could have been a month ago... So FYL, OP. Go talk to the registrar or your academic adviser.

I withdrew from one of my classes online and I didn't have to fill out anything...

This is the weakest FML in quite a while. Seriously, go talk to a person and get it fixed. Whoopdee frickin' doo...

Not all colleges are the same. The college I go to, all we have to do is go onto our online account and click "drop class", they give us a list of all of our classes. The option drop all IS there. All you have to do is click that, say ok, and they do the same as to the OP, send you a letter confirming that you have dropped said classes.

Dropping all your classes could mean dropping out of that college if the college has an attendance policy that states you have to have a certain number of hours (like above zero) per semester to be enrolled. It doesn't make sense for colleges to keep people enrolled as students if they don't take any classes. However, even if the OP was dropped out of college he can still enroll next semester if he can't get it fixed for this semester. Not like he's banned from that college b/c he dropped out one semester.

Just because your college is like that doesn't mean everyone's is. At the college I was going to, everything to do with classes is web-based. We register and drop our classes online. Doing this makes it so we CAN drop a class half-way through the semester without having to explain ourselves to the professor.

Maybe you aren't college material after all.
