The last day to withdraw from
the University is: November 20. |
|
|
Students desiring to withdraw from the University must initiate a
Student Petition for Withdrawal / Cancellation form, secure approval
from their academic dean, obtain authorization from Student Account
Services within the Division of Enrollment Services, and submit the
form to the University Registrar. The effective date of the
withdrawal is the date the Student Petition for Withdrawal is
processed in the Office of the Registrar. No refunds are made
without an official withdrawal. Discontinuance of class attendance
or notification to the instructors of intention to withdraw does not
constitute an official withdrawal. Students who reside in University
housing must secure clearance from the Office of Residence Life and
Student Housing.
Medical withdrawals
provide a pro rata refund of tuition and fees, and have conditions
that must be met prior to re-enrollment at SMU. Medical withdrawals
can only be authorized by a licensed physician or psychologist/
counselor in
the SMU Health Center. The University does not grant retroactive
medical withdrawals. The last day for a medical withdrawal is the
last day of class instruction of the semester/term the student is
requesting to withdraw from. Withdrawing students living in SMU
housing must check out of the residence halls with Residence Life
and Student Housing per established procedures.
A student who officially cancels his
or her enrollment or withdraws from the University is charged only a
portion of tuition and fees based on the effective date of the
cancellation / withdrawal.
Please refer to the tables below for
the percentage of tuition refund. |
