For financial aid purposes a withdrawal can be an official withdrawal, a medical withdrawal, a military withdrawal, an unofficial withdrawal (walk away), a conduct dismissal or an academic dismissal. A student is considered to be withdrawn if he/she is not actively enrolled in and attending/participating in any credit bearing courses in a degree granting program. Withdrawal refund policy also applies to students who are dismissed during the academic term.
