Revised November 2016
Under what conditions may a Request for Hardship Withdrawal be approved?
A Hardship Withdrawal is intended as relief for extreme circumstances and is granted only in special instances. The following conditions apply:
• The student must meet the timelines and follow Steps 1-4 below, with emphasis on providing documented evidence in support of the
claims warranting the request.
• The student must withdraw from all classes during the current term, and may not select only certain classes from which to withdraw.
o Under unusual circumstances, a student may be granted a hardship withdrawal from only one class, while being allowed to
remain in others. An example of unusual circumstances would be a student who is passing an applied piano course and injures a
finger, thus being unable to play the piano the rest of the semester. A student would be allowed to complete other courses being
taken concurrently.
• Hardship Withdrawals requested after the Friday immediately prior to the final week of the term will be treated as a Retroactive Hardship
Withdrawal.
o Retroactive Hardship Withdrawals will not be approved if the student has completed all course requirements such as a final
examination and/or a final project.
o Retroactive Hardship Withdrawals will not be approved for terms occurring more than six months prior to the time the request
is made.
• Please Note: Academic suspension (term or one year) or academic dismissal may only be reviewed through a grade appeal or hardship
withdrawal. The suspension or dismissal will not be overturned until the grade appeal or hardship withdrawal has been processed. (UWG
Faculty Handbook, Section 208.05)
• Approved hardship withdrawals do not result in a tuition refund. Approved hardship withdrawals may affect a student’s financial aid
eligibility. Please consult the Enrollment Services Center for confirmation of the impact if the request is approved.
What are examples of conditions that do not warrant a Hardship Withdrawal?
The following list is illustrative of invalid reasons for a Hardship Withdrawal.
• Poor performance in one or more courses
• Registration for the wrong course
• Preference for a different professor or class section
• Failure to drop a course during the drop/add period
• Failure to withdraw by the published deadline using normal procedures
Steps for Requesting a Hardship Withdrawal
In steps 1-4 below, the Dean may designate an Associate or Assistant Dean to act on his/her authority. The Provost and Vice President for
Academic Affa
irs may designate the Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs to act on his/her authority.
1. The student completes the “Request for Hardship Withdrawal” form found online at
https://www.westga.edu/administration/vpaa/student-forms.php, or request one from the VPAA’s office. The student
should be prepared to provide documented evidence to substantiate the hardship being claimed.
2. The student submits the completed Request for Hardship Withdrawal form and documented evidence to Health Services
(HS) or the Counseling Center (CC).
3. The HS or CC professional staff will interview the student, review the documented evidence, and recommend to support or
not support the request for Hardship Withdrawal. HS or CC professional staff will send the request form and a letter, which
explains the recommendation, as a confidential document to the appropriate unit within Academic Affairs, while retaining
the documented evidence in their confidential files.
• Undergraduate students with a declared major: The request form and recommendation letter will be sent to the
Dean of the College where the major department is housed.
• Undeclared students: The request form and recommendation letter will be delivered to the Dean of the Honors
College.
• Graduate students: The request form and recommendation letter will be sent to the Dean of the College where the
graduate program is housed.
4. Approval authority and processing is differentiated in two categories of request:
• Hardship Withdrawal - If the Dean approves, the Dean will notify the student of the approval and forward to the
Registrar to change the grade/s to W. If the Dean does not approve the request, the Dean will notify the student of
the denial. The student may then request a review by the Provost (this is not an appeal and will only be reviewed
for institutional error). It is the student’s responsibility to notify the Dean that he or she wants the Provost review to
be done. When notified by the student, the Dean will forward the request form to the Provost
• Retroactive Hardship Withdrawal - The Dean makes a recommendation to the Provost. The Provost’s Office will
notify the Dean of the approval or denial and the Dean will proceed with procedures similar to Hardship
Withdrawal. The request for Retroactive Hardship Withdrawal ends with the Provost.
