Late Withdrawal
A late
withdrawal does not refund tuition fees. If a late withdrawal is approved by Academic Services, a grade of "Withdraw
Passing" (WP) or "Withdraw Failing" (WF) will be assigned by the
instructor according to the student's academic performance. A "WP"
has no effect on the GPA and a "WF" is calculated as a failing grade
in the GPA. Talk to your professor before pursuing
a late Withdrawal petition. Your professor
should be informed of your intent to change the registration status of
your class(es).
