EXCUSED WITHDRAWAL ELIGIBILITY REFUND ELIGIBILITY
All of the following conditions must be met:
The class cannot have been fully completed. “Completed”
is typically demonstrated by the completion of a final
assessment (exam, paper, etc.), whether successful or not.
Extenuating circumstances must be demonstrated and
require documentation. Extenuating circumstances include,
but are not limited to, serious medical conditions, serious
family emergencies, military deployment, the student’s
death, and other severe/catastrophic circumstances.
An Excused Withdrawal is approved for all enrolled classes
for the requested quarter, except in unique circumstances
when the extenuating circumstance(s) directly impacted
the ability to complete a specific class. An example is a
broken leg when a student is enrolled in a dance
performance course. Considerations for different
modalities (in class, online, etc.) may also be considered.
Refund petitions may only be approved for students who
withdraw for medical emergency or military requirements in
accordance with Washington State legislation (RCW
28B.15.605) and Pierce College policy.
Not attending class does not entitle a student to a refund.
