Faculty, Deans (and designees) should be as flexible and accommodating as possible in considering requests for course withdrawals.
Please encourage students to consult with student support services (Financial Aid
& Scholarships, Veterans Services, International Student Services, etc.). before initiating
a withdrawal request; additional information about Withdrawals may also be found on
the Spring and Fall 2020 Withdrawals page.
The process begins with the student sending a notification to faculty through email;
for fall 2020, instructor approval is not a requirement but students are asked to
notify instructors (in addition, the Registrar's Office will send email notification
when W grades are assigned)
Students should submit completed petitions for course withdrawal through the Withdrawal Petition Formwhich is then routed to the College Deans (or designees) for review.
Students who are inquiring about the status of their petition should contact withdrawals@csusm.edu(monitored by the Office of the Registrar)
