Petition for Late Withdrawal


A student wishing to withdraw from a course after the withdrawal deadline has passed may petition for a late W grade in one or more courses by submitting a Petition for Late Withdrawal form.

● Petitions for a Late Withdrawal are considered only because of extraordinary non-academic circumstances, such as unforeseen medical or other personal circumstances that have significantly and unexpectedly inhibited the student’s ability to complete the course(s).
● Students may request a late withdrawal at any time within one calendar year of course completion.
● If the Petition for Late Withdrawal is approved, students will receive a ‘W’ grade on their transcript for the course(s) listed in the petition for the semester in question.
● Approval of a Petition for a Late Withdrawal does not guarantee a refund or adjustment of tuition paid. Financial adjustments made to paid tuition for the semester in question are determined in a separate process by the Tuition Adjustment Committee. For more information: click here
