Withdraw From a Term

How does a student withdraw from a term (drop their last class)?

Prior to the first day of the term (check the Academic Calendar for dates), students can disenroll from the term (drop all courses with no record and cancel term tuition and fees). 

Once the term has begun, students must contact their school/college or department (Rackham students) to request a Term Withdrawal. Staff authorized to approve term withdrawals may use the Term Withdrawal Form to submit the notice to the Registrar’s Office for processing.

Students who register and subsequently withdraw after the term begins will be responsible for the registration/disenrollment fee regardless of class attendance.

Term Withdrawal Notices arriving in the Office of the Registrar by the dates listed below will be processed with the tuition adjustment listed. Students in Business Administration, Dentistry (D.D.S.), the Law School, the Medical School, and the School of Social Work should check their school calendar for deadline dates.
