SCHOOL POLICY

Official Withdrawal from a course

Students who officially withdraw from a course prior to completion of ¾ of the course will receive a grade of "W" on their transcripts. Students must complete the Course Withdrawal form, obtain approval from the program director and file the form with the Registrar within this period. The official date of withdrawal is the date on which the completed form is filed in the Office of the Registrar, not the date of last attendance. Non-attendance or notification to the instructor/program director does not constitute an official withdrawal.

Upon approval of course withdrawal, the course instructor will be notified of the withdrawal by the Registrar.

Unofficial Withdrawal from a course

A student who misses two consecutive or non-consecutive weeks of a course during the withdrawal period without approval from the course instructor or obtaining official withdrawal will receive an unofficial withdrawal. In this case, the student’s transcript will show a course grade of “WF".

Unofficial withdrawal from a course will result in a grade of "WF" if the student withdraws prior to completion of 3/4 of the course. If a student unofficially withdraws after 3/4 of the course has been completed, a performance grade will be issued.

Administrative Withdrawal from a course

Students withdrawn from a course by the School for reasons including but not limited to, financial reasons (student has not paid tuition and fees due) or health reasons (student has not completed required immunizations.) will receive a grade of "W".

Tuition and Fees

A student who withdraws either officially or unoffically after the tuition refund period will be assessed full tuition and fees.
