If a student seeks to withdraw from a course(s)
after the official withdrawal date, this
may be granted under extenuating circumstances,
such as serious illness or job transfer,
and will be considered on an individual
basis by the instructor. It is the student’s
responsibility to provide compelling documentation
for this request and to attach the documentation
to the withdrawal form. The withdrawal form
requires the signature of the advisor, appropriate
instructor(s), and the dean and then is
processed in the Registrar’s Office.
It is the responsibility of the student
to initiate the withdrawal process. If a
student stops attending class and does not
complete an official withdrawal, the student’s
final grade will be an “F.”
An exception will be made for Developmental
Education course work.
The “W” will not influence the
Grade point average for the semester. However,
withdrawing from courses could affect a
student’s eligibility for financial
aid. Students who receive financial aid
should always consult the financial aid
officer before withdrawing from a course.
