Should a student wish to take a fall or spring term off from school that student should apply for a Leave of Absence (LOA) from the Undergraduate Academic Services office. Normally, the student's cumulative GPA must be over a 2.00 to have an LOA. This application must be processed prior to the end of the 6th week of classes (the end of the "W" period). For those students who will be going on any type of study abroad or exchange program, the Leave of Absence is coordinated through the Office of International Education and Programs. When official leave is granted, students need not apply for readmission. [Request For Leave Of Absence] You may print this form to submit it as a hard copy or send it electronically.

Students readmitted to the College of Charleston after an absence of three or more years may choose to have their previous College of Charleston record treated as transfer credit if they achieve a GPA of 2.50 or better upon completion of their first 15 semester hours earned after their return. Previous work at the College will remain on the students' permanent records; however, only course work completed since readmission will be used to calculate their cumulative GPA. Students choosing this option should request it in writing once the 15 semester hours are completed. Note: Students who choose to apply the three-year transfer option to their record should be aware that any D course work done prior to readmission will not count toward graduation. For the purpose of calculating GPA for graduation with honors, all course work taken at the College of Charleston will be included in that calculation. [Request for Three-Year Transfer Option] You may either print this form to submit it as a hard copy (completed) or you may send it electronically (completed).

WITHDRAWAL FROM A CLASS (es) WITH NO GRADE PENALTY ("W" GRADE): Before the "W" deadline (approximately 6 weeks into regurlary scheduled courses) students may voluntarily withdraw from individual courses and/or labs until the official withdrawal deadline for the semester through Cougar Trail on the web, or by submitting the required paper work to the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal deadlines are posted on the academic calendar for every term.

After the "W" Date: Withdrawals are processed through the Undergraduate Academic Services Office. Students may withdraw from course(es) after this deadline with the grade of "W" only with permission of the director of Undergraduate Academic Services and the professor teaching the course. This permission will be granted only if continued enrollment in the course would be detrimental to the student's health or if extenuating circumstances prevent the student's continued enrollment. Students may pick up forms to petition for withdrawal after the deadline through the Undergraduate Academic Services Office, or they may print the forms [Petition for Withdrawal After Official Withdrawl Deadline ] from here and submit completed hard copies, personal statement and supporting documentation to the Office of Undergraduate Academic Services Office.

Should a student decide to leave the College of Charleston permanently, that student is encouraged to formally withdraw through the Undergraduate Academic Services. Once processed, the appropriate offices are then notified by E-mail of the action taken. Students may decide to withdraw from the College for a variety of reasons. If there are documented extenuating circumstances, a student may obtain an involuntary withdrawal/emergency leave from all courses with the approval of the director of Undergraduate Academic Services office and the student's professors. Before a student is allowed to officially withdraw, appropriate arrangements must be made with the offices of the Treasurer, Financial Assistance, and Residence Life to ensure that all obligations to the College have been satisfied. [Print the Student Withdrawal Form] or Send Your Request Electronically.

Note: If the student is enrolled in classes, the process for withdrawal from a class must also be used for every class, except in a medical emergency.  In the case of a medical emergency, the Undergraduate Academic Services must be contacted, and documentation must be provided.
