It will ask you again to confirm.

Click yes.  If the request is submitted prior to the academic calendar requiring authorization, the drop will be processed.  If the request is submitted during the academic calendar that requires approval then you will receive the message below asking if you want to request an approval to drop the course.

Next, you will have the option to provide a comment with the request, if you choose.  Once you are ready, click Request Approvals.

In the Scheduling Assistant, you will see that a request is pending.

Once approved, you will no longer see the course in your schedule when you return to the Scheduling Assistant.

For the class you dropped, you will see the status is now Withdrawn.
