You are not required to have a special reason to withdraw from the term. However, there may be alternatives that should be considered before making this decision and we encourage undergraduate students to discuss all options with their academic coordinator prior to withdrawing. Graduate students should consult with their faculty advisor or major department contact before completing the withdrawal process.

You may withdraw from the current term at any time during the current semester, through the last day of instruction.

Withdrawing from the current term during the first 30 calendar days of the semester (or according to a prorated schedule for shorter academic terms like summer session) will result in a student’s transcript being marked “withdrew (date).” Individual courses will not be recorded.

Withdrawing from the current term after the fourth week through the last day of instruction (end of the 15th week) will result in the transcript being marked “withdrew (date),” and a grade of “W” will be recorded for each course.

If you are on academic probation during the semester in which you withdraw from the current term, you must obtain permission from your academic coordinator to re-enroll at WSU Everett in a future semester.
