Drops & Withdrawals
Drops
Students may drop from a course at any time during the drop
period using CAESAR.
You may drop a class with academic penalty (no tuition adjustment):
- Fall: November 10, 2008
- Winter: February 21, 2009
- Spring: May 16, 2009
You may drop a class without academic penalty (no tuition adjustment):
- Fall: November 3, 2008
- Winter: February 13, 2009
- Spring: May 8, 2009
Students who drop courses may be eligible for a tuition
refund, less any nonrefundable fees and deposits. The tuition
refund will be applied as of the date the drop was performed
on CAESAR.
Withdrawals
Students who would like to withdraw from them, even if it
is their only course must complete and sign a Change
of Registration Form and have that form countersigned
by an SCS staff member. Or, write a letter to the SCS Registrar’s
Office citing the reason for withdrawal. The letter should
also include a Student ID. Address the letter to:
Registrar
School of Continuing Studies
Northwestern University
339 E. Chicago Ave.
Wieboldt Hall, 6th Floor
Chicago, IL 60611-3008
Students may fax the letter; however, it
is their responsibility to confirm by telephone that the faxed
letter has been received in the School of Continuing Studies
office. The fax number is 312-503-4727. The telephone
number is 312-503-6950.
Simply notifying your instructor
or ceasing to attend class does not constitute an official
withdrawal. A student who fails to officially withdraw
will receive a grade of X (unauthorized withdrawal) for the
course, which will be entered on the student’s permanent
record and computed as a Zero in the GPA. A student enrolled
in an undergraduate course may not withdraw from the course
after the 10th class session.
