A college withdrawal may be appropriate for you if the deadline for dropping your course(s) has expired and you are unable to complete ALL of the courses you are currently registered for. Withdrawing from the college means that you are assigning yourself a grade of ‘W’ for each course you are currently registered for. Course withdrawals impact your academic standing. Students accumulating more than 8 ‘W’ or ‘NC’ grades are subject to suspension from the college.
RCTC strongly recommends that you work with your advisor or counselor prior to withdrawing from college to achieve the best possible outcomes for your individual circumstances. Also you must notify the following offices if you are receiving benefits from them:
College Withdrawal Period
Whether withdrawing from all courses at once or one at a time, the
course withdrawal deadlines must be met. Courses that meet for the entire
semester have a common deadline for withdrawal. Shorter courses (those
that meet for a portion of the semester) have unique withdrawal deadlines.

course withdrawal deadlines.
Because of the difficult circumstances that lead a student to withdraw
from college, the policy
allows for a partial refund if done within specific deadlines as defined
below:
