Course Withdrawal Deadline

The last day to drop a class for the Fall 2008 Semester is Monday, October 6, 2008. The following is the official policy regarding late withdrawal from a course as stated on page 134 of the Spring 2007-Fall 2008 Undergraduate Catalog.

Late Withdrawal from a Course • After the course withdrawal deadline, a student may drop a course only in cases of extreme and unavoidable emergency as determined the student’s academic dean. Unacceptable reasons for late withdrawal include dissatisfaction over an expected grade or a change in a student’s degree program or major. In no case may a class be dropped after the last regular class day semester, session, or term.

Courses dropped after the course withdrawal deadline will still appear on the student’s official transcript. The W mark will be recorded if the student is passing the course at the time of withdrawal; the F grade will be recorded if the student is failing.

Students who wish to petition for a late withdrawal from a course should contact the Office of Student Services in Ventress Hall 103.
