Withdrawal Policy and Procedures
Withdrawal from a course must be initiated by the student by using Web Registration, submitting a Registration Form to Hawk Central or meeting with a counselor/advisor before the deadline. You are encouraged to meet with your counselor/advisor and instructor prior to withdrawing from a class or from college. Your counselor/advisor will review the implications of withdrawing and other possible options with you.
If you’re receiving financial aid we advise you to speak with Financial Aid staff prior to withdrawing from a class, as there may be a negative impact on your ability to receive financial aid in the future.
The institution sets final withdrawal deadlines based upon 75 percent of the scheduled class meetings. You may withdraw from a full-term course with no record on your transcript if the withdrawal has been processed on or before the tenth day of the quarter (eighth day for summer). If you’re withdrawing from a full-term course after the tenth day (eighth day for summer), but on or before the fortieth day (twenty-seventh day for summer) of the quarter, you will have a "W" recorded on your transcript. For all alternative class schedules (i.e. fast track courses), visit Hawk Central for withdrawal deadlines.
Non-Refundable Fees
The Recreation Center fee, per-credit comprehensive fee, lab fees, and any additional specialized course and class fees are not refundable unless withdrawal occurs prior to the first day of instruction
