Withdrawal from the University

Students who find it necessary to withdraw from the University should complete the Cancellation/Withdrawal Form. This procedure is extremely important both to the student and to the University because course grades, refunds, bills, financial aid, and on-campus housing are involved. If students feel it necessary to withdraw from school, they are advised to do so before the deadline for dropping classes. To avoid establishing a record of failing grades, students should pay attention to this deadline.

Cancellation of Registration

Cancellation of registration prior to the beginning of the semester is the student’s responsibility. Students may officially cancel their registration before the first day of the semester by completing the Cancellation/Withdrawal Form. The date of the official cancellation will be the date the student’s form is received by the Academic Records Office.

  • Log into Campus Connection > eForms > Cancel/Withdraw to Zero
  • Students will receive a confirmation email when the form is submitted
  • Students will receive an email of the completed cancellation request

Official Withdrawal
