POLICY
If a student’s
registration is canceled, there shall be no permanent transcript record
for the semester. If a student initiates withdrawal or the university has
completed withdrawal procedures for administrative reasons, a grade of ‘W’
will be entered on the transcript.
A student who is required to withdraw from the term or from a course after
the final withdrawal date due to illness or extenuating circumstances may
petition the Vice President for Academic Affairs for an exception to the
final withdrawal date. If approved, the student’s withdrawal is processed
and the final withdrawal date of the term is used as the official date of
the student’s withdrawal. (See BOR policy 5:7.2)
Undergraduate and graduate students who drop a course, or withdraw from
the Regental System, shall receive a grade of ‘W’ if that action occurs
anytime between the day after the census day for that course and the day
that corresponds with the completion of 70 percent of the class days for
that course. (Exception: a student who completely withdraws from the
System from the first day of class until the census date of the class(es)
will have a pseudo course entered on their transcript. (See BOR policy
2:6.8)
The "W" grade denotes official withdrawal and does not impact grade point
average. Credit hours for "W" grades are considered hours attempted for
purposes of enrollment verification.
PROCEDURES
Class - The "Request for Withdrawal" form must be
completed for each course in order to withdraw from that specific course
while maintaining enrollment in other courses at the University for that
term. These forms are available in the Enrollment Services Office or in
any college office. Instructor, adviser, student and Registrar must sign
this form. The date of official course withdrawal is the date the
completed form is submitted to Enrollment Services. Withdrawal from
class request forms that are late are not accepted except in extenuating
circumstances as approved by the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
Anticipated course failure is not considered to be extenuating.
Deadlines for withdrawal from individual courses are published in the
course schedule.
University - To withdraw from all courses for a given term
is to withdraw from the University. If a student is enrolled at more
than one Board of Regents institution, the student must withdraw from
all courses at all institutions. Students contact the Student Services
Center to initiate this process and to notify
all appropriate university offices. The effective date of withdrawal is
the date the student initiates the withdrawal process officially. A
notation of the date of withdrawal will be included on the student’s
transcript. Failure to officially withdraw results in failing grades for
all coursework and forfeiture of any possible refund.
For information concerning refunds see Refund Policy 03-44-00.
