Withdrawal Policy

1. An attempt is defined as having registered in the course for at least three weeks and appeared on the roster and/or received any grade (academic or administrative).
2. A withdrawal from a nursing course is a first attempt.
3. A student is allowed to withdraw twice from a course.
4. To progress in the nursing program, students must complete level requisite courses.
5. A student who withdraws for non-academic reasons must provide appropriate documentation to support the withdrawal.

There is no re-entry for students who have failed out of the program (failed 2 nursing courses). The student failing 2 nursing courses must see the Chair, and an advisor in Academic Advising Center (AAC) to provide guidance relative to other career options.

A student who withdraws for non-academic reasons must provide appropriate documentation to support the withdrawal.

The following student behaviors may lead to program dismissal (involuntary program withdrawal).
