Policy 468 - Last Day to Withdraw from Classes

Withdrawal from a course must be received by Registration by the final withdrawal day. The last day to withdraw from a fall, winter or spring class is the last day of the eighth week of instruction. For courses shorter than 10 weeks, including summer quarter courses, the last day to withdraw is 80% of the length of the course.

Late withdrawal requests submitted after grades are recorded are reviewed for approval by the Academic Standards Committee, which considers requests for late withdrawal for reasons that include valid, verifiable proof that withdrawal beyond the deadline date was due to a significant and unanticipated personal emergency or circumstance.
