Changes of courses are permitted during the first two weeks of each term. Courses may be added or dropped after the second week of the term only with the associate dean`s approval. Courses dropped after the second week are listed on the transcript with a grade of W. The date on which the graduate registrar receives the student`s written notification of withdrawal from school governs the academic and financial consequences of the withdrawal. A student who stops attending a course without notifying the registrar receives a grade of F in that course. No refunds of the tuition or student fee are given in the case of individual course withdrawals after the second week of classes, although a student who withdraws from all courses may receive a partial refund according to the rules described in the section on the refund policy in the Tuition and Fees chapter.
