退出政策

截止日期后退学

(逾期退学而不受罚分)

政策声明

Each semester the University publishes the deadline for withdrawing from classes without academic penalty (typically, the 50th day of the semester – see 校历), after which a letter grade is assigned for each course in which a student is enrolled. 然而, in rare cases, students may experience extreme 个人的困难 beyond their control on or after the published 撤军的最后期限 that hinders the continuation of their current class schedule, and they believe the best course of action is to withdraw from the University or from an individual course after the published 撤军的最后期限. 

Students who seek a late term withdrawal must complete a Petition for Academic Withdrawal After the Deadline Form: one form to request withdrawal from the University (i.e., withdrawal from all classes for the semester) or another form to request to drop an 带W的个人课程. As part of the petition, a student must provide appropriate documentation, which supports the date and nature of the 个人的困难 and shows how it prevented successful completion of the semester or an individual course.

此政策仅适用于本学期. 因此，如果一个学生相信 that he/she may qualify for a late term withdrawal, the request should, ideally, be initiated prior to the end of the semester in which the hardship occurred. 然而, the University acknowledges that some hardships may prevent students from submitting 对逾期的撤资请求要及时处理. 因此，为了给学生 a reasonable window of opportunity to complete the request form and to gather the appropriate documentation, requests must be submitted no later than the last day of classes of the semester immediately following, regardless of whether or not the student 在那个学期注册了吗. 例如，一个学生经历了困难 after the last day to drop/withdraw without academic penalty during the Fall 2015 term, must submit the request and documentation no later than the last day of classes 2016年春季学期.

Before requesting an Academic Withdrawal After the Deadline, students should consider 以下几点:

6. This policy does not apply to semesters or courses previously completed nor does it 适用于未来的学期或课程. If a student believes that extenuating circumstances existed that prevented his/her ability to make good grades during a previously completed term; please refer to the Administrative Withdrawal policy in the bulletin.
7. This policy does not apply to courses in which the student believes that the final grade in an individual course was incorrect, arbitrary, or assigned unfairly; please 请参阅成绩检讨政策.
