Withdrawal. Students who wish to withdraw from the
college should consult their faculty adviser and one of the deans in
the Office of Academic and Student Programs. After the interviews, the
student must fill out a withdrawal form stating the reasons for
withdrawal and submit the withdrawal form to the Office of Academic and
Student Programs. Withdrawal by mail is possible only when illness
precludes the possibility of interviews. Students who leave the college
without officially withdrawing receive a grade of F in each incomplete
course. Official withdrawal from the college with grades of W in all
courses is not granted after the 12th week of the term except in cases
of extreme extenuating circumstances (such as serious illness) and with
the approval of the Admissions and Scholastic Standing Committee.
Students are responsible for knowing the procedures and deadlines for
withdrawal from the college or from particular courses.
Readmission. Any
matriculated student who withdraws or takes a leave of absence from
college may apply for readmission to the Admissions and Scholastic
Standing Committee at Cook College. Readmission customarily is approved
for students who submit the application at least two weeks
prior to the beginning of the term in which they wish to return.
Readmission applications are available in the Office of Academic and
Student Programs, Martin Hall, second floor.
For the college's
policy on readmission after dismissal for academic reasons, see
Scholastic Standing later in this chapter.
Students who have
graduated from Cook College may apply for readmission for one year to
take additional undergraduate courses as nonmatriculated students in
order to enhance employment opportunities, to complete requirements for
academic certification, or to take courses that are required for
application to a graduate program. Cook College students also may apply
for readmission to complete a second Cook College bachelor's degree
program.
