Withdraw Policy

A student who plans to withdraw after classes have started for the semester initiates the process with the Office of Student Affairs by completing the Withdrawal Form. The official date of withdrawal is the date the student contacted the Office of Student Affairs or the Office of Adult Studies (for Adults Studies students) OR the midpoint of the semester if the student leaves without notifying the institution OR the last date of attendance at a documented academically related activity. This policy applies to students who withdraw or are suspended.

Students who participate in activities on campus prior to the first day of classes and then submit written notice of withdrawal prior to the first day of classes shall be assessed an early withdrawal fee.

The charges for tuition, fees, room and board assessed the student are based on the number of calendar days (including Saturday and Sunday) that the student is enrolled on campus in direct proportion to the period of enrollment (number of calendar days in the semester). The student who withdraws after 60 percent of the enrollment period will be charged for the whole semester and will be eligible for financial aid based on the semester costs.

Students who are considering dropping from full-time (minimum of 12 hours per semester) to part-time must consult with the Office of Student Financial Services for resulting changes in financial aid.

Please refer to the College Catalogue for more details on the withdrawal policy.

*Please note that all aid (grants and loans) must be applied for and processed by the Office of Student Financial Services prior to a student's last date of attendance. Students should meet with our staff to make sure all aid applications are complete prior to withdrawal.
