the second week of classes will not be processed.
Withdraw from select courses after the withdrawal deadline
Late Withdrawal is a withdrawal from a class after the withdrawal deadline published
in the Academic Calendar has passed.
Withdraw from all courses in a term
Total withdrawal is withdrawing from all registered courses in a semester.

Overriding the withdrawal limit is a request to withdraw from more courses than permitted
by the withdrawal guidelines published under 鈥溾 in the Student Registration and Records section of the Undergraduate catalog.

Open for an overview of the ARC petition process steps
The ARC Petition process steps include:
1. Undergraduate students initiate a petition by identifying the type of petition and term.
All petitions include a narrative describing the student鈥檚 situation and supporting documentation (for example, from instructors or medical providers) to support their petition. It is the student's responsibility to obtain, complete and upload all documentation required by this process; it is expected that all supporting documentation is submitted with the petition.
2. The College (or Unit) makes a decision on the petition OR requests more information
from the student (which restarts the workflow).
3. Approved petitions are routed through business offices for processing, followed
by
notification of completion to the student's 新澳门六合彩内幕信息email.
4. Denied petitions are closed in Archivum and students are notified via 新澳门六合彩内幕信息email
of the
decision.
Certain ARC decisions may be appealed first through the College Dean (or designee) within fifteen (15) Academic days of the initial decision. Please review the ARC Appeals webpage for more information.
