Withdrawal from an Individual Course

A student may withdraw from any course or courses by submitting a Change of Schedule form to the Office of the Registrar on or before the last day to withdraw from an individual course, as published in the Academic Calendar.

Students who withdraw from a course or courses on or before the last day to withdraw from an individual course are assigned a grade of “W.” Failure to attend class does not constitute a withdrawal from that course or courses. Students are limited to a maximum of one (1) withdrawal per course, up to a maximum of sixteen (16) credit hours over the student’s academic career. Upon a second attempt in a single course, the student is not permitted to withdraw from the course and must receive a grade for the course.

A student who does not officially withdraw from a course or courses will be assigned final grade in each course in which he or she was enrolled during the semester in question. Withdrawing from a course or courses may affect a student’s financial aid status, will count toward the tuition surcharge threshold, and may affect the student’s progress toward degree completion.

Students considering withdrawing from a courses or courses should consult their faculty advisor or academic unit advisor and the Office of Student Financial Aid.
