<p>My friend told me he wants to withdraw two graduate courses due to work and other activities he has to do. What are the pros and cons of withdrawing a graduate class?</p>
<p>There’s really not enough information here for anyone to answer your question.</p>
<p>What kind of program is he in? Full or part time? Did he have a course overload to begin with? Has he spoken to the Director of Graduate Studies in his department? Will fewer courses jeopardize his award, if he has one? </p>
<p>Ultimately, the answer will depend upon his specific program and his specific circumstances.</p>
