TVCC Withdrawal policy states, “A student may withdraw (drop) from all courses and receive a grade of “W” at any time during a given semester subject to the withdrawal or last day to receive a “W” deadline specified in the College Calendar. A grade of “F” will be assigned for courses dropped after the deadline specified in the College Calendar. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the Vice President of Instruction.
Withdrawal or drop procedures must be initiated in the Guidance Office. The drop form must be submitted to the Registrar’s Office with appropriate signatures before it is official. Withdrawal requests will not be accepted by telephone.
It is the student’ responsibility to officially withdraw from a course or verify that the instructor has initiated the drop process.
WITHDRAWAL FROM DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES
Any student subject to Texas Success Initiative (TSI) requirements may not withdraw from all developmental courses unless he or she withdraws from college. Any exception must be approved by the Vice President for Instruction.
If a student enrolls in a class for the 3rd time, an additional free of $60 per credit hour will be charged and added to the current tuition and fee rate.
NOTE
A new THECB Rule has been established to address a new law enacted by the legislature regarding the number of withdrawals (W”s) that a student may have during their academic career (THECB Rules: Chapter 4, Subchapter A, 4.10). The law states that any student whose first semester in college is fall 2007 or later may not have more than six (6) unexcused withdrawals, they will no longer be allowed to withdraw from a course without receiving a grade in the course (which will be an “F”). To determine if a withdrawal is excused, a student must process a withdrawal request through the guidance service office. If an instructor initiates a withdrawal, it is automatically an unexcused withdrawal. It is the student’s responsibility to officially withdraw from a course. |
