Withdrawals
If it is necessary for a student to drop (terminate work) any class or to withdraw completely from all courses at the University, the student must complete the process by doing the following:
To Drop a Course
The student can go to Academic Advisement (if he/she has not declared a major), Admissions and Records at the Tahlequah Campus, Student Services at the Broken Arrow or Muskogee Campus, or use the EXCELS phone enrollment system at 918-456-5511, ext. 5580.
To Completely Withdraw From All Courses
The student must go to the Office of Admissions and Records at the Tahlequah Campus or the Student Services Office at the Broken Arrow or Muskogee campuses. If the student cannot go to the office in person, the student should call the Office of Admissions and Records at 800-722-9614 or 918-456-5511, ext. 2200, for assistance.
Withdrawal Before or During the Twelfth Week
If a student formally withdraws from single classes or completely from the University before or during the twelfth week, the instructor will assign a "W" (withdrew passing) regardless of the student's progress in the course.
Withdrawal After Twelfth Week
If a student formally withdraws from single classes or completely from the University after the twelfth week, the instructor will assign a "W" or "F" depending on the student's standing in the class at the time of withdrawal. A "W" will be assigned if the student was passing at the time of withdrawal. An "F" will be assigned if the student was failing at the time of withdrawal.
Students Who Stop Attending Class
If a student simply ceases to attend class or classes and has not formally withdrawn the instructor will assign an "F" grade at the end of the semester.
Withdrawal Periods Permitted
A student may process a formal withdrawal from single classes fro the time of "add and drop" until the last week of classes in a semester and until the last day of a summer term. No class withdrawals are permitted in the last week of a semester or the last day of a summer term. The last date to withdraw with a "W" is published each semester in the schedule of courses. Failure to follow the above procedures may have a negative impact on your standing with the university and financial aid status.
A Complete Withdrawal From the University
A complete withdrawal from the University is permitted any time after the student is enrolled up to the last week of a semester or the last day of the summer term. Complete withdrawals are not permitted during the last week of classes in the fall or spring semesters.
