Withdrawal from the College
Students who desire to withdraw from the College must follow the procedure outlined below.
If for any reason after you have registered for and attended classes, you are unable to continue in school, you must officially withdraw from the College and follow the procedure outlined below:
Step 1: Students should pick up a withdrawal checklist from the Registrar’s Office and are prompted to complete the online exit interview. The online exit interview is sent via email to the students Adrian College account.
Step 2: Student obtains the required signatures from the offices on the checklist.
The checklist provides the students with offices that need to be notified of their intent to withdraw. This provides the student and the offices an opportunity to discuss the implications of withdrawing.
-
Financial Aid- discuss financial implication of withdrawing at this time, obtain signature
-
Housing- notify Director of Housing to coordinate move out date, obtain signature
-
Student Business Services (Cashier’s Office)- discuss how to pay remaining balance and implication if the balance remains outstanding, obtain signature
-
Academic Services, conduct in person exit interview and obtain signature – Academic Services will provide a copy of the interview answers to the Registrar’s Office for the student’s permanent file
Step 3: The completed checklist needs to be returned to the Registrar’s Office. Verification that the student has completed the online portion of the exit interview will be validated. If not completed, the link will be resent via email with the notification to the student that their withdrawal cannot be processed until this is completed.
Step 4: The following offices are notified of a student’s official withdrawal date by the Registrar’s Office:
After a student completes the checklist, an email is sent to the student's faculty for last date of academically related activity. The information is then recorded on the withdrawal spreadsheet that is shared with housing, student business office, financial aid, and academic services.
Students enrolled in five hours or less need to complete a schedule change form in the Registrar’s Office. Students enrolled in six hours or more must follow steps 2-4 below. The last date to withdraw from the regular fall and spring semesters is the Friday before final exam week begins. For more information, consult with the Registrar’s Office.
No student will be presumed to have officially withdrawn from the College until each of these steps has been completed in the order specified. Upon approved withdrawal from the College, grades of “W” with the withdrawal date will be recorded for the semester’s courses on the permanent record. Failure to follow the withdrawal procedure will result in recording grades of F on the permanent record.
