March 21 is the Deadline to Withdraw from a Class and Change your Grading Option to Pass/D/Fail

The deadline to change your grading option to PDF is March 21, 2024.  Note you may change your grading option to PDF in only one class per term.  Grades of P will satisfy General Education Requirements;  They will not count towards major requirement.  You will have until the end of the registration period (the second Friday of term) of the Fall 2024 semester to uncover a grade of P received in Spring 2024. 


Barnard students will use SSOL to elect P/D/F grading

-Click here to elect Spring 2024 course for P/D/F grading.  (Use a browser other than Safari).

-Click on P/D/F grading then Grading Option Change Request.

This form can be used to elect Pass/D/Fail for a course where that option is not available in SSOL.

To undo/ revoke your p/d/f election  - or switch the election to a different class (this must be done prior to the P/D/F grading deadline):

-Go to ssol.columbia.edu and go to Pass/D/Fail Uncover.



To withdraw from a class, use this online form, following these steps:


1. Consult with your adviser.


2. Get an email from your adviser confirming they approve you to withdraw from this specific class.


3. Download that email as a PDF or save a screenshot of it.


4. Complete and submit the online W form on or before the W deadline, uploading your adviser’s confirmation email when prompted to do so.


5. You will receive an email confirmation once your W request is processed, ordinarily within two business days. 

Note that the W will not appear on your record until the end of the semester when final grades are entered.
