Last Day to Withdraw from a Course with a “W” Grade
- Friday, November 12, is the last day you can withdraw from a course and receive a “W” grade on your transcript. “W” grades do not factor into your grade point average (GPA). Click here for instructions on withdrawing from a course.
- A possible reason for withdrawing from a course is the potential you may not pass the class. If you believe you may fail a class, discuss the option of withdrawing with your instructor. Once withdrawn, you no longer need to attend the class.
- Please consult your advisor as well as your instructor before withdrawing, as it may affect your degree progress.
