October Policy of the Month: Drop vs. Withdrawal

 Dropping a class means that you will remain enrolled in at least one hour of course work in the current semester and will receive a "W".

The deadline to drop a class for fall is  

October 25th at 11:59 p.m.

Withdrawing is reducing your hours to zero for the current semester.

If you are passing a class at the time you withdraw you will receive a "W" in the course. If you are failing a class at the time you withdraw, you will receive an F in the course.

To withdraw from all courses you will need to complete a Withdraw Request Form through the Registrar’s office. Information about how to request withdrawal from the University and/or access to the Withdrawal Request Form can be found here: http://www.registrar.txstate.edu/registration/withdraw-from-classes.html.

The last day to withdraw from all classes for fall (going to zero hours) is November 19th at 5:00 p.m.

 

You can find the full policy on page 28-29 of the 2014-2016 Undergraduate Catalog
