And unless you've read Providence's specific protocols, you don't know if it's too late. And it's almost never too late with the right faculty signature.
Yeah since it happens, the university's must make exceptions. I can't see them taking on a smaller course load since they get their degrees in 4 years. I dont Providence's specific protocol, I just remember when I was doing my degree there was a withdrawal deadline.
