i mistakenly took 2 summer courses and got a job. Unfortunately i cant handle both courses and the job. So i was considering dropping one of the courses. Would it be better to wait until may 31st to drop the course, so that cancelling the course has no effect on my admission too a level 2 program. Also lets say when i graduate i have 2 cancelled courses on my transcript, will this effect me when trying to get into Macs MBA program.

To my knowledge, I don't see a difference in dropping the course now or on May 31st, because a dropped course is a "dropped course". The plus side of dropping the course now is that you will get some of your money back.

In terms of it affecting your admission to a level 2 program, is the course a mandatory pre-req (i.e. required for your degree)?

For your last question, I would suggest e-mailing the department or contacting someone. But in general, having a cancelled course is not that detrimental as long as there is not an overall trend.

Also, if you make it to the interviews (if there are any) they might ask you why you dropped the course and you can explain yourself.
