Withdrawal from a Course
Course withdrawals apply to eligible students requesting to withdraw from one five-week session in their program.
A student attending American InterContinental University must request and submit a written document for a course withdrawal through their advisor. Requests must be made in advance of a session start or prior to the final week of a session.
• For withdrawals from a session before it begins, students must request and submit documentation prior to session start date
• For withdrawals from a current session, request and submission of documentation must occur within 15 days of the student’s Last Date of Attendance (LDA)
• Part-time graduate level students are not eligible; full-time graduate students are only eligible for withdrawal from a single course in a term
If a student requests a course withdrawal and does not submit the appropriate documentation within the allotted time-frame, the student will no longer be eligible for the course withdrawal (prior to session start), or may be withdrawn for non-submission of the required documentation (for a session in-progress).
Upon returning from a course withdrawal, the student must return to the same course(s) from which they withdrew. Students are only eligible for a course withdrawal once per academic year and must have completed one full quarter (two five-week sessions) to request a course withdrawal. Financial aid and academics may be impacted by any course withdrawal. The Student Advising department must be contacted to initiate a course withdrawal request and to review implications, as well as to assist with the request and any questions that may arise.
