Withdrawal Policies for Fall And Spring Semesters

Course Drop Policy for Distance Courses

No tuition and fees paid by the student will be refunded after day 10 of the fall and spring semesters, not including weekends.    (Academic Calendar for semester dates).  Please refer to the Summer Programs website for policies in that semester. 

* Please note: If the tuition was paid with either Federal or Private educational loans, the refund will be in the form of the loans being cancelled. You will still owe the fee associated with your withdrawal.

A grade of W (Withdrawal) will be recorded if written notification of withdrawal from the course is received by the end of the 10th week of the semester. Notice to the instructor or discontinuance of attendance does not constitute withdrawal. Such notice must be submitted in writing to the Registrar's Office.

Incomplete Grades

Incomplete grades are transitional grades and must be changed by the instructor within 12 months. If course work is not made up by this time, the grade automatically becomes an F. All students should refer to the Graduate Catalog for academic policies.
