This petition may only be used for students solely enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences. Students enrolled in multiple programs or colleges must adhere to the deadlines and policies of their primary college of record.

The faculty have established a deadline for students to drop classes. Deadlines are posted on the Office of the Registrar’sÌýwebsite. Students are responsible for knowing and adhering to posted deadlines.

Submitting the petition does NOT result in automatic approval. Students are expected to keep attending class and submitting work until they have received theÌýofficial outcome of their petition. Petitions will be accepted until 5 p.m. (MT) on the last day of classes for full session fall and spring classes, or by the withdrawal deadline for any ´Ç°ùÌý.

Students wishing to request a full term withdrawal should submit anÌýonline withdrawal formÌýthrough the Office of the Registrar instead of a late drop petition.

In and of themselves, the following are not sufficient reasons to drop a class beyond the posted deadline. Students are encouraged to speak with their academic advisor to explore whether Grade Replacement is appropriate and to discuss additional options.
