The Rule of Implementation for Article 16
A student may withdraw for a semester or summer semester without
being considered to have failed the courses, provided that the
withdrawal period is counted within the period necessary to complete
the graduation requirements, according to the following:

1. If the student completes the withdrawal request before the end of
the second week of the regular semester (before the end of the
first week of the summer semester), all registered courses will be
dropped. This withdraw will not have any impact on the student’s
academic transcript.

2. If the student completes the withdrawal request after the end of
the second week of the regular semester (after the end of the first
week of the summer semester) but before the end of the eleventh
week of the semester (before the end of the fifth week of the
summer semester), all registered courses will be dropped. In this
case, the student will receive a grade of (W) in the courses he/she
were enrolled in. If the student had previously received a grade of
(DN) in any course, the grade (DN) will remain unchanged.

3. A withdrawal request is not allowed after the end of the eleventh
week of the regular semester (or the end of the fifth week of the
summer semester), except for exceptional cases. The College
Council may make an exception for such cases, provided that the
request is made before the end of the thirteenth week.

4. A student is permitted to withdraw from a maximum of four
consecutive or separate semesters, and the Deanship of Admission
and Registration may make an exception based on the College’s
recommendation.

Article 17
A student has the option to withdraw from one or more courses. The
conditions and procedures for doing so are specified in the rules of
implementation for this by-law.
