Reporting a drop after the drop/add period.

If a student withdraws after the drop period, report the adjustment or termination as “After Drop Period–Non punitive Grades Assigned” or “After Drop Period–Punitive Grades Assigned” as appropriate. Accurately identify whether the grade assigned is non punitive or punitive. The action VA takes differs for non punitive and punitive grades. If the grade is non punitive, mitigating circumstances are an issue. Check “Yes”, “No”, or “Unknown” in the mitigating circumstances box.
