Official withdrawal from the College is granted by the Vice President and Dean of the College upon formal request by the student. Failure to attend classes or merely giving notice to instructors is not considered as official notice. A student who withdraws without official clearance is automatically suspended, and a grade of "F" is recorded for all courses in progress at the time of withdrawal. Withdrawal does not preclude suspension for academic or other reasons.

Before withdrawal, clearance must be secured in the following order:

1. A full-time student must have a conference with the Vice President of Student Life.
2. Parents or guardians of dependent students are notified of the withdrawal in writing or through telephone conference with the Office of the Vice President of Student Life.
3. Any student receiving financial assistance from the College must have a conference with the Director of Student Financial Aid.
4. All students must obtain financial clearance from the Business Office.
5. All students who withdraw must have a conference with the Vice President and Dean of the College after completion of the previous steps.
6. All students who withdraw during a semester must surrender their picture identification card to the Office of the Vice President of Student Life.
7. Official withdrawal and assignment of grades are granted by the Vice President and Dean of the College only after completion of the foregoing steps.

A part-time or special student may withdraw at the Registrar’s Office.
