A student who wishes to withdraw from a degree program for any reason shall notify the Dean in writing, noting the reasons for withdrawal. The decision to withdraw is a serious one. The Seminary requires students to discuss withdrawal plans with their academic advisor.
The effective date of withdrawal is the date that the Dean receives the letter requesting withdrawal from the degree program. The effective date of withdrawal is also used to determine the adjustment of tuition, fees, and financial aid.
Once the withdrawal process is initiated, a student who changes his/her mind about withdrawing from a degree program may do so by rescinding the withdrawal in writing to the Dean. If the separation is to take effect at a time when classes are in session, the rescission must occur within ten calendar days from when the process was initiated.
Resident students must vacate their housing unit within 15 business days of their withdrawal date. When a resident student withdraws and vacates a Seminary housing unit, the rent for the month of vacancy will be pro-rated based on the number of days of occupancy.
Note that the student’s transcript will not be released until the withdrawal process is complete.
Withdrawal from classes and/or a degree program has implications for financial aid eligibility. Financial aid refund policy.
Re-admission
Students who have withdrawn from their degree program must apply to the Admissions & Standing committee for re-admission. If the student is re-admitted, the committee will determine the conditions that pertain to student’s acceptance into a degree program.
