Student Withdrawal:
Effective Summer 2011, students will have the ability
to initiate a withdrawal from classes. By completing the form in the Records
Office or through the form located within WebAdvisor, the student is
authorizing IVCC to remove him/her from the course. Entering the student ID
number serves as the student’s electronic signature. IVCC has the right to
rescind a withdrawal in cases of academic dishonesty or at the instructor’s
discretion.
Students should be aware of the impact of a withdrawal on full-time status
for insurance purposes and for financial aid. It is highly recommended that
students meet with their instructor or with a counselor before withdrawing
from a class to discuss if a withdrawal is the best course of action for
that particular student.
More detailed information is available at www.ivcc.edu/admissions and selecting the menu item for Withdrawals on the left side of the page.
