Nonattendance or notification to the instructor/program director does not constitute
formal withdrawal. Students wishing to officially withdraw from a course or courses
must submit a Program Withdrawal and Course Withdrawal form, which can be found
online at:
The official date of withdrawal is the date on which the completed form is filed, NOT
the date of last attendance.
Please note: The Program Withdrawal and Course Withdrawal form will be forwarded to
the student's program for approval. Once approved and returned to Enrollment Services,
the withdrawal will be processed and refund granted if applicable.
Further, if the student withdraws from ALL courses, reducing to zero credits, he or she will
also need to indicate a status: Leave of Absence, Maintaining Matriculation, or Official
Withdrawal from the School. This requires completing and submitting the proper form.
The form may be found at the registrar's website:
