Graduate Edition 2021-2023

Maximum Course Withdrawal (Semester Hours)

Students can drop classes without penalty during the schedule change (drop/add) period at the start of the semester. Schedule change deadlines are published in the academic calendar. After the drop/add deadline, students can withdraw from no more than 16 semester hours during their undergraduate career in which a grade of "W" will be posted to a student's transcript. After a student has exceeded this limit, the student must receive a final grade of A, B, C, D, or F. A grade of Incomplete ("I") will not be allowed as a substitute for a course withdrawal beyond the course withdrawal limit. Any course that a student withdraws from is counted toward the 16 semester hour limit.
