Withdrawing from a Courses
Students may withdraw from a full semester course from the beginning of the 4th week of the semester until the end of the 12th week of classes by completing and submitting the Course Drop/Withdrawal Form available on the Registrar’s Website or at the Registrar’s Office. No permission is required. A student seeking to withdraw after the 12th week of class and until the last day of classes must present documentation of extenuating circumstances for his or her request and submit a Late Course Withdrawal Form (available on the Registrar’s Website or at the Registrar’s Office) with signatures of from the instructor of the course and the chair of the department in which the course is taught. Poor academic performance is not considered an extenuating circumstance. If the request is approved, a “W” will be recorded on the student’s transcript. If a student stops attending and fails to withdraw officially from a course, a grade of “F” will be recorded on the student’s transcript. In all cases of withdrawal, a “W” does not affect the student’s grade-point average
