Withdrawal from the College

A student who must withdraw completely from the College whether for military deployment, medical or personal reasons should submit a Request to Withdraw form to the director/chair of the graduate program.

Upon form submission, the student’s graduate program has three (3) business days to contact the student to discuss the withdrawal. After three (3) business days, the withdrawal will be processed with an official withdrawal date recorded as the initial submission date of the withdrawal form.

Grades of W or F are assigned in accordance with the policies set forth under Withdrawal from Courses. Students will be withdrawn as of the day on which they submit their form or notify the institution, not according to the last date of attendance. In some cases, if sufficient work has been completed and extenuating circumstances are established, it may be possible to arrange for grades of Incomplete (see Incomplete Grades).

The College of Idaho reserves the right to administratively withdraw students for non-compliance with College policy; non-attendance or participation as required by the student’s academic program; failure to fulfill financial, academic or legal obligations; or failure of the student to initiate the official withdrawal process (Administrative Withdrawal Policy). Students who are administratively withdrawn will be notified of the action in writing by the College official initiating the withdrawal.

Students who withdraw from the College or who are administratively withdrawn must apply for re-admission (see Re-Admission Policy and Procedures).

Violations of the College’s Student Code of Conduct, including the Honor Code, will not be addressed under the Administrative Withdrawal Policy. For additional information, see the “General Student Conduct Procedures” section (and related sanctions) in the College’s Student Handbook.
