Drop, Add, and Withdrawal Procedure for Students

DROPS AND WITHDRAWALS - If a student completes, signs and turns in a registration form, the student is considered registered for the term, whether or not he or she attends classes or pays tuition and fees. An official DROP or WITHDRAWAL FORM MUST BE COMPLETED AT ONE OF THE APPROPRIATE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES. Telling your instructor or telephoning a university official does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal. A "DROP FORM" is used when a student wishes to drop one or more, but not all courses. A course correction may be made on the same day that a student registers without paying a fee. This does not apply to withdrawals or to telephone, fax, Internet or mail registrations.

A "WITHDRAWAL FORM" is used when the student discontinues attending ALL classes.

Drop or Withdrawals (Financial Responsibilities)

Last day a student may drop or withdraw without owing full tuition & fees is listed on the student calendar and the semester schedule - all tuition and fees must be paid after this date. Financial Aid Students must complete 60% of the term to receive their full financial aid. If a Financial Aid recipient withdrawals before completing 60% of the term, federal regulations require Troy University, Montgomery Campus to return a prorated amount to the Department of Education. The student will be responsible for paying the amount returned.

GRADE STATUS AT TIME OF DROP OR WITHDRAWAL

Students who drop or withdraw from a course(s) BEFORE mid-term will not be charged academically for hours attempted. Students who drop or withdraw from a course(s) AFTER mid-term will be charged academically with hours attempted in the computation of the overall grade point average. (See student calendar for dates). If there are documented circumstances beyond a student's control, these documents must be presented to the Dean of Student Affairs for review and approval for an exception to the above policy. After mid-quarter, please contact the Student Affairs office for specific information (334) 241-9532.

THE IMPACT OF DROPS AND WITHDRAWALS ON FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID: If you are receiving financial aid, and drop or withdraw after the refund date and before completing 60% of the term, federal regulations require Troy University, Montgomery Campus to return a prorated amount of your grant and/or loan to the Department of Education. The Troy University, Montgomery Campus Business Office, in turn, bills the student for the amount returned.

Payment of miscellaneous fees, books, reduction of financial aid, and the return of financial aid already awarded may be involved. Students who drop or withdraw are required to notify the Financial Aid Office in room 208, Whitley Hall, to determine if your aid will be canceled and, if so, the procedures on how to appeal for reinstatement of your aid.
