Withdrawing from Courses and/or School

Students who withdraw from a class or from college should first consult with a member of Student Services. A student may withdraw from a course and receive a grade of “W” up until sixty percent of the class contact hours have elapsed. After that point, all drops will be initiated by the instructor who may assign a grade of “W” or “F” at the end of the semester. Students who wish to completely withdraw from school should meet with a member of Student Services. Veterans should check with the veterans’ coordinator in the Student Services department for specific VA regulations concerning withdrawals and class repeats. 

Financial aid recipients should be aware that withdrawals will affect their “Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements” and may require a portion of unearned aid to be repaid. Therefore, financial aid recipients should seek advisement from the Financial Aid Office before making any withdrawals.
