You may not realize it, but you posted this question in a global community of people who use the Canvas learning management system software. We can help with issues regarding the Canvas software, but we don't know anything about the specifics of your school.

You need to contact your institution to drop a course. We do not know which institution you're attending, so we cannot do more research for you and provide information specific to your school. 

Often the ability to add or drop a class is contained within the student portal so I would start there. Sometimes you can find it by going to your institution's website and searching for drop or withdraw. If you can't find anything there, then you may want to look for registration, student services, or admissions. The office that handles this varies from school to school, but you can often find a contact number somewhere in the places I've suggested.

On my canvas you just clicking to the course card and and their should be a menu at the top right hand corner of the screen. 

The fourth button down should say drop this course

 @m_mcmanus , thanks for adding this; please know that a Drop This Course option on the course card is not a standard feature of Canvas and is most likely a customization that was added by your school.
