A student who wishes to initiate a withdraw from a course after the deadline may do so by filing a petition to present a serious and compelling reason for withdraw to the Office of the University Registrar. Approval for such a withdraw will be granted only in extreme cases where extenuating circumstances are evident and can be substantiated. No financial adjustments are made. Failing or performing poorly in a class, and dissatisfaction with the subject matter, class or instructor are not acceptable serious and compelling reasons for late withdraw. (University Catalog)
