I see your point. Okay do this, call them up. Explain it to them that you want to pay right now but not the full amount. Maybe they will give a 20% discount if you pay right then. Now if it were...

Typically when you're enrolled in a course, you have to submit a drop form when you decide to drop a class at the Registrar. This has to be done within the first week of classes in the new semester....

Here's the problem. The college's dropping mechanism is via the phone. So there's no signature from me that I dropped it... I'm not sure how else I'd be able to prove it.

I'm not 100% sure but I think it stays on there but shows as being resolved. Again, not totally sure but having it marked as resolved is far better than the alternative if it does stay on there.

Try getting an official transcript from the school, it will be pretty clear on there whether or not you were in the class according to their records.
