Addendum for Petition to Withdraw
Students must complete the 'Petition to Withdraw' form and this Addendum after the regular withdrawal
deadline. Course withdrawals during the emergency withdrawal period are rarely approved and only
permitted in cases such as an accident or serious injury where the extenuating circumstances are
beyond the student’s control and the assignment of an incomplete is impracticable. Therefore, withdrawal
during the emergency withdrawal period will normally involve total withdrawal from all classes due to the
serious nature of the illness or injury.
