Withdrawl Process from the University - George Fox University Catalog
Withdrawal Process from the University
The registrar's office is designated by the institution as the contact for all withdraws: part-time, during-semester, or complete withdraws. If a student wishes to officially withdraw from all course work at George Fox University either during or at the end of a semester/enrollment period, the student must notify the registrar's office directly to initiate the withdraw. An official withdraw begins when a student submits a completed form with all required approvals to the registrar's office. In most cases, an exit interview will also be required.
Generally the student will be awarded W grades for all courses affected by an official withdraw.
The student is then considered to be officially withdrawn.
General Information
The student is responsible to return all institutional property to the appropriate office or department, such as library books, keys, athletic equipment, lab equipment. Students are financially responsible for all items not returned.
The student will be notified by Student Financial Services of financial obligations when the withdraw calculation is completed. For a copy of or examples of the removal of institutional charges policy, please contact Student Financial Services.
The official withdraw date is established by the registrar's office. Generally, the withdraw date is the date the withdraw form is completed and submitted to the registrar's office or the date established on the withdraw form.
For during-semester withdraws, students generally lose enrollment privileges five working days after the official withdraw date established by the registrar's office. These services may include, but are not limited to, e-mail, library, student activities, food service, on-campus housing, health, and other related services associated with enrolled student status. The university reserves the right to remove privileges immediately upon official withdraw notification.
Rescind Notification of Intent to Withdraw
If a student wishes to cancel his or her official withdraw from the institution, that student must submit to the registrar's office, in writing, his or her intent to complete the current term of enrollment. This rescinds the student's notification of intent to withdraw.
Unofficial Withdraw
If a student fails to follow the official withdraw process, he or she will be considered to have unofficially withdrawn. If the student unofficially withdraws, the institution will generally use the 50 percent point of term or a documented earlier or later date of academic activity or attendance as the official withdraw date. Generally, the student will be awarded F grades for all courses affected by an unofficial withdraw.
Appeal
An appeal of the established withdraw date is to be submitted in writing to the registrar's office within 60 days from the established withdraw date.
