Students who find it necessary to withdraw (i.e., discontinue all classes)
during the Fall Semester 2009
should IMMEDIATELY notify the Office of Extension and Distance Education by
calling 1-800-355-4084.
Students must notify the Office of Extension and Distance Education by each
term's "last day to withdraw
without academic penalty" (as posted in the Academic Calendar) in order
to avoid the "withdrawal/failing"
notation on the transcript. (Should the need to withdraw be of a medical and/or psychological nature, additional information is available at www.healthservices.appstate.edu and at www.counseling.appstate.edu.) A student who withdraws may be eligible for
a refund according to the University
refund policy.
The last day to withdraw without academic penalty
is October 28, 2009.
REDUCTION OF CLASS SCHEDULE (dropping selected courses rather than all courses for the term)
University policy cites that if students reduce their class schedules (drop
courses) during the first five days of class
(i.e., the Drop/Add period), 100% of the difference in tuition and fees between
the original and revised schedules will
be automatically credited to their accounts and available for refund. Effective
Fall Semester 1995, an undergraduate student may drop a cumulative
total of no more than four (4) courses after the published drop-add period.
("Cumulative total" is defined as four [4] drops over the student's undergraduate
career at Appalachian, excluding summer term.) Students who reduce their
class schedules (drop courses) after the Drop/Add period will not be eligible
for a refund.
The last day to drop a course and be eligible for
a refund is August 31, 2009.
The last day to drop without academic penalty is October 28, 2009.
