Not-enrolling students must complete and mail the Not Enrolling at UB form.
Submitting the not enrolling form to the Office of Admissions will notify the student’s advisor that they wish to drop their classes.

When a student is registered for courses, the student assumes responsibility for paying all charges associated with those courses. A student must pay even if not one class was attended unless the courses have been dropped or resigned according to the published deadlines, which can be found on the student calendars.
Additionally, it is important that students cancel other services they were scheduled to receive, such as a residence hall room, a meal plan, student medical insurance and financial aid.
Completing the Not Enrolling at UB form will notify all of the service units in one simple communication.
