A <strong>Course Withdrawal<\/strong> means you have chosen to discontinue one or more courses. A <strong>University Withdrawal<\/strong> means you have chosen to discontinue your entire term or year of studies. Depending on the date of withdrawal, you may be entitled to a refund.<\/p><p><b>Why would you want to withdraw?<\/b><\/p><p>You may wish to withdraw for a number of personal and\/or academic reasons, which may include simply not liking the course, not doing well in the course (see Grading procedure), illness, financial difficulty or personal issues.<\/p><p><b>On your transcript<\/b><\/p><p>You will receive a grade of \u201cW\u201d on your transcript if you choose to do a Course or University Withdrawal before the Course Withdraw deadline. A grade of \u201cW\u201d does not affect your CGPA as it does not count towards it, and a few over the course of your academic career will not affect future studies or career goals. However, keep in mind that you must officially withdraw from your course or the university on Minerva. You cannot simply stop attending your lectures or notify your professor about your situation. You must consult your Faculty Advisor, and then withdraw on Minerva. If you do not declare your withdrawal on Minerva, you will receive a grade of &#8220;J&#8221; instead of a &#8220;W&#8221; for a final grade. A &#8220;J&#8221; grade is equivalent to a zero in the course and will count as such for your CGPA.
