Withdraw (W), becomes the final grade when a student withdraws from a course prior to the withdrawal deadline as posted on the fall/spring academic calendar. Withdrawing from a course may create a course and credit shortage. The student will have to complete additional course work to eliminate this shortage and graduate on schedule. A W grade is processed only when the student submits the electronic Withdraw from a Course form, which can be found on the Registrar’s webpage. Not attending class does not constitute a withdrawal.
