Withdrawal Form

What is an Official University Withdrawal?
An official withdrawal occurs when an enrolled student (graduate or undergraduate) decides they must leave the University in a given term after the last day to add/drop a course and the student has attended at least one class. The official withdrawal date is defined as the day the student submits their official withdrawal request.

The student is assigned a grade of “W” for each course and the “W” will not be calculated in the GPA. Withdrawal from the University may affect housing, graduation, financial aid, and tuition and fees.

How to Initiate Your Official Withdrawal Request?
To begin the withdrawal process, students are required to contact their advisor in the University Academic Advisement Center, complete the electronic withdrawal survey and withdrawal request form. Upon withdrawal from the University, attendance in all classes and/or academic activities must end. The withdrawal process will be completed within 1-3 business days.

All students will be responsible for the tuition and fee charges associated with the class(es) and  their charges related to attending the University. Note: Please view the academic calendar for  official University dates.

Official Withdrawal Checklist
Use the following list as a guide to help guide you through the withdrawal process. Note, not all items may apply to your situation. 
1. Before you initiate an official withdrawal, speak with your advisor.  Your advisor can help determine what options are available to you. The University expects that students maintain continuous enrollment each term.

2. Check on your financial aid status.  Withdrawing from the University may have implications on future financial aid eligibility and student loan repayment. Federal regulations and University policy may require that you repay a portion of the funds you received. Your financial aid will be prorated according to your date of withdrawal and funds credited to your student account will be adjusted. This adjustment may create an outstanding balance on your student account that you will be required to pay. We strongly encourage you to investigate these factors prior to withdrawing.

3. Pay any remaining charges on your student account.  You will not be able to re-enroll into the University in the future or request an official transcript, if any unpaid, past-due charges remain on your account (tuition, fees, etc.). If  your account is past due, it may be referred to a collection agency.

4. If applicable, check your housing status. Contact the Housing department to determine if there may be financial implications when canceling your housing.

5. If applicable, notify University Veterans Services of your plans to withdraw. If you received benefits as a US veteran, service member, or family member of a US veteran, you must notify University Veterans Services of your leave or withdrawal.

6. If applicable, notify the Department of Athletics of your plans to withdraw.  Any athlete should contact the Department of Athletics of your temporary or permanent leave from the University.
