All Appeals:

  • Students wishing to withdraw from a course from the beginning of the tenth week to the end of the twelfth week of the semester may request a withdrawal from the course instructor.
  • Must be for an extenuating circumstance, like family emergency, death in the family, medical illness, military orders, etc.
  • The instructor has the option of granting or refusing the request.
  • All requests must include documentation and if the request is granted the instructor will sign the add/drop form and the College will assign a grade of W.
  • If denied, the instructor will assign the earned course grade.
  • The request must be received before grades are issued for the semester in which the student is requesting the late W., i.e. if a student is requesting a late W for the Fall semester, the request must be received and approved prior to the issuance of grades for the Fall semester. Approval of a late withdrawal will result in a W (withdrawal) on the student’s record, but no refund will be issued. The W is not calculated in the student’s overall GPA.

Please Note: Once grades have been issued, a student no longer can receive a late withdrawal. The student must apply for a Retroactive Withdrawal to the Tuition Refund Appeal Committee. Refer to the Tuition Refund Appeal Student Request Form on the College website or visit the Student Development Center, Room 8220 in the Technology Center.
