Withdrawal From Winter Classes
Students who are registered for any winter classes may drop or withdraw from those courses through myShip at myShip Experience.
If you stop attending class but do not withdraw, you will remain registered and will receive a grade of "F" for the course. You will not receive refunds or adjustments to your account if you do not officially notify the University of your withdrawal.
Refund Schedule
The refund policy mandated by the Board of Governors of the State System of Higher Education. That policy is available through Student Accounts.
Note: In some cases a student may owe a balance to the University after Title IV aid is returned. Information concerning the detailed application of the refund policy can be obtained by contacting the Student Accounts Office at 477-1211.
Refund polices are subject to change by the State System of Higher Education.
First Day Attendance
The first day attendance policy allows faculty to remove you from a course if you do not attend the first class session and do not provide notice to the faculty or the department secretary. This also applies to the first class after you add a course during schedule adjustment. If you are dropped from a course for not attending the first class, you may only reschedule it if it is still open during schedule adjustment. Even if you do not attend the first class, you are still responsible for dropping the course during schedule adjustment. Otherwise, you may remain scheduled for the course and receive a grade of "F" for nonattendance. You may also be charged for the course.
