Step 1: Earn an Undergraduate Degree. Though a high school diploma is the only formal education needed to become a state trooper in some states, others require a minimum of an associate's degree, or even a bachelor's degree, in criminal justice or a related field.
If you have a scholarship or have both applied for and are expecting financial aid (Pell grant or loans) and you decide not to attend classes, you must drop your classes through WebAdvisor before the first class day of a semester or term to avoid losing the scholarship or having to pay back the financial aid.
If you are dropping after the automatic W deadline: Visit the Registrar's Office in the Eagle Student Services Center or the department for the course to be dropped and pick up a drop form to take to your instructor, who will then assign either a grade of W or WF.
