If you are withdrawing from the University, you should complete an official withdrawal through the appropriate University office (see 1 and 2 below) before the end of classes during a semester or summer session. An official withdrawal constitutes an honorable dismissal from the University and may facilitate readmission.

Failure to withdraw officially results in the assignment of an AB course grade, which is computed as an F grade in establishing grade point averages and academic eligibility. This means that you will also be responsible for the tuition and fee payments associated with the course(s).

1. Medical Withdrawal. If you decide to withdraw for reasons of illness, you should contact the Student Health Service, whether the treatment was received there or elsewhere. If a medical withdrawal is authorized, the official withdrawal will be handled through the Office of the Director of the Student Health Service. A medical withdrawal is affected without grades and without a semester in residence.
   
   
2. Academic Withdrawal. If you decide to withdraw for reasons other than illness, or if a medical withdrawal cannot be authorized, you must contact the dean's office of the school in which you are enrolled. An official withdrawal involves the completion of an application for withdrawal form. You must obtain clearance signatures from course instructors and certain University offices, as determined by the dean's office, before the form is submitted.
