Exceptional Circumstance Withdrawal

Supporting documentation should be submitted to the Records and Registration office. Supporting documentation is typically a statement from a physician stating circumstances that prevented completion of the term or course. DO NOT SEND MEDICAL RECORDS.

Family members are not usually considered third parties.  If you have difficulty in identifying the type of documentation needed, please contact the Office of Records and Registration for assistance.  Please see the list below for documents that DO NOT support withdrawals:

  1. Billing statements (from physician or hospital)
  2. Prescriptions
  3. Photos of injury, medical condition, etc.
  4. Medical records
  5. Facebook postings

If grades have been assigned for the term, faculty will be contacted for permission to change the grades to a W.  It is the instructor’s decision to allow a grade change to a W.

Students who have received orders to report for active duty for 30 days or more, are eligible to drop classes and are entitled to a reversal/refund of paid tuition and course fees. A copy of the military orders is required.

Students who experience a death in their immediate family must submit third-party (e.g. copy of death certificate, newspaper, funeral home, medical provider, etc.) documentation which must show that the exceptional circumstances occurred immediately prior to or during the requested term and supports the need to withdraw.

Students who enroll but do not attend will receive a grade of 0.0 and be held financially responsible. Faculty have the right to withdraw a student for non-attendance, but once a grade is assigned it is at the request of the primary faculty on the course.

Academic difficulty, disagreement on instruction, change in major, etc. are not considered exceptional circumstances. Requests may not be considered without supporting documentation.

Contact Records and Registration for assistance.

The Exceptional Circumstances Request process is set in place in order to assist students who have had significant changes in their circumstances that prevent them from continuing their attendance for a particular term and/or to consider reducing the financial hardship experienced by these students. These circumstances generally revolve around students’ (or their families’) medical conditions, death in the family, and military deployment.

If your circumstance fits these criteria and it is past the refund date, fill out the “Exceptional Circumstance Withdrawal” form. This form will be sent to a committee for review where a determination will be made. You must have documentation regarding your exceptional circumstance in order for your request to be reviewed.
