Drop Student From Roster How-To Guide
How do I drop a student from my roster?
Answer
If you are unsure if the student needs to be dropped, you should drop them. The student can be re-instated at a later date.
Variations of faculty drops:
Drop No Show by Faculty - A "no-show" student is a student who did not attend the first class meeting of an on-ground section or did not log into an online class by Friday of the first week of instruction. If a student who needed to miss the first day of class contacts you, you have the option to allow the student to remain in the class.
Drop Class - If a student attended some class meetings of an on-ground section, or has logged into an online section but has not been participating in class activities, that student should be dropped by the drop deadline using the 'Drop Class' option.
Follow the steps below to drop students:
- Log in to mySierra
- Click on the 'Faculty' tab
- Click 'Instructor Drops'
- Choose the term from the dropdown menu
- Find the class you want to drop students from, and click on the CRN

- When finished selecting from the drop-down for all students who need to be dropped, press the 'Submit' button at the bottom of the screen
