While attending UW-Eau Claire, circumstances may arise that require a student to withdraw from the University. If you are considering dropping/withdrawing from ALL of your courses (regardless of how many courses) after the term begins, you are considered to be "withdrawing" from the University.

This procedure is not to be confused with dropping/withdrawing from a single course or several courses. After the term begins, students CANNOT withdraw from the University by attempting to drop/withdraw from all of their classes online. CampS will not allow a student to drop/withdraw from their last class online.

Keep in mind that set withdrawal deadlines are established for each course and your date of withdrawal can have an impact on tuition/fee charges owed to the institution and whether a "W" grade will be assigned to your academic record. See the Academic & Registration Calendar for withdrawal deadlines and the Refund Schedule / Financial Aid Repayment Notice for refund information associated with term withdrawals. The withdrawal deadlines and the refund schedule DO NOT ALWAYS MATCH.

Note: Short-term courses academic and refund deadlines are prorated based on the class length. Information specific to short-term courses is listed below.

A decision to withdraw should be given careful consideration. Withdrawal can have a major impact in terms of veteran's benefits, athletic eligibility, financial aid, student loan repayment deferral, and other situations which have specific consequences from withdrawal. If you are considering withdrawing, you are encouraged to consult with your adviser and the Blugold Central - Bursar's Unit prior to completing the official withdrawal process so that you may discuss the best possible outcomes for your individual circumstances.

If you are able to document that you have not attended the course(s) for which you registered (non-attendance), you will be assessed 20% of the original fees due, reduced to resident rates, and any late fees or finance charges.
