Administrative Withdrawal

Decision-making for administrative late withdrawals resides within the OneDePaul Office. These principles underlie the decision-making processes:

  1. All policies are driven by academic concerns.
  2. Decisions are guided by the best interests of the students.
  3. Decisions will be made in compliance with federal regulations.

Requests for late withdrawals from one or more courses in a given quarter must be submitted to the OneDePaul office by using the Late Withdraw online form.  All requests must be submitted by the following deadlines.

For Undergraduate/Graduate:

  • Fall Quarter: Last day of the last final exam of the subsequent winter quarter.
  • Winter Quarter: Last day of the last final exam of the subsequent spring quarter.
  • Spring Quarter: The end of the second week of the subsequent autumn quarter.
  • Summer Terms: Last day of the last final exam of the subsequent autumn quarter.

During their college career, students may be allowed a maximum of 2 administrative withdrawals of which one must be of a medical nature.  Each request may be for only 1 term of classwork.  Classes with grades of C- or higher will not be considered for administrative withdrawal.  

Students who never attended a course should consult with their academic advisor regarding the steps to correct their academic record.
