Dropping a course through CaneLink

Dropping all courses

Students may not drop all courses through CaneLink. In accordance with University of Miami policies, dropping all courses or reducing a student credit-hour load to zero is construed as a formal withdrawal from the University. 

To officially withdraw from the University of Miami, non-degree students are required to:

  • Notify the 'Canes Success Center by emailing success@miami.edu 
  • In the subject line please indicate "Non-degree Student Withdrawal"

Students who request a complete withdrawal from a major semester (fall or spring) will need to reapply to be eligible to enroll for any future semesters.
