Withdrawal
Withdrawal from Courses

A student who wishes to withdraw from a course must withdraw officially over the web or through the Registrar's Office; simply informing the instructor of the intent to withdraw is not sufficient. The student is responsible for withdrawing officially from a course. Administrative drops are at the discretion of the professor. Students who do not withdraw officially by the published withdrawal deadline are not eligible to drop or receive a grade of W.

TSI regulations apply to developmental courses. Students may not attend any class from which they have withdrawn or have been withdrawn.

Requests for withdrawal become official and effective the date entered on the web or received in writing in the Registrar's Office. The College will not honor requests received after published withdrawal deadlines.

Except during registration (when a corrected fee receipt documents withdrawal), the Registrar's Office will issue withdrawal verification to students who withdraw in person at that office. Students should retain such verification of withdrawal in case questions arise later about refunds or transcript records.

Withdrawal Deadline

The Academic Calendar (published in the Catalog and in the Schedule of Classes) states the deadlines for submitting both student-initiated and instructor-initiated withdrawal forms to the Registrar's Office to receive and automatic grade of "W" for various-length courses. As mandated by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, the withdrawal deadline is determined at approximately the 75% point of the course. Students should check the Schedule of Classes to determine the correct date for specific courses. After the deadline the College does not permit withdrawal with a grade of W, and students will receive a grade of A, B, C, D, F or I.

Complete Withdrawal from College

Dropping all remaining courses not previously dropped during a term constitutes withdrawal from the College. While courses may be dropped on-line, complete withdrawal must be accomplished in the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal from the College requires returning all College-owned property and paying all outstanding debts of tuition, fees, and fines. San Jacinto College will not issue official transcripts for students who have outstanding debts or College property.
