How Do I Withdraw from a Class by the *NEW* 5:00 pm, April 22, 2024 Deadline???

 The **NEW** deadline to withdraw from a spring 2024 class is  April 22, 2024 at 5:00 p.m.  

Note that this is NOT the same date as the p/d/f deadline.

Withdrawn classes will not affect your GPA and you will not earn credit for them, but they will remain on your transcript, and a W will be entered place of the final grade. 

Note: You may not withdraw from a class if doing so would leave you with fewer than 12 credits.

 

To withdraw from a class, use this online form , following these steps:


1. Consult with your adviser.

2. Get an email from your adviser confirming they approve you to withdraw from this specific class.

3. Download that email as a PDF or save a screenshot of it.

4. Complete and submit the online W form on or before the W deadline, uploading your adviser’s confirmation email when prompted to do so.

5. You will receive an email confirmation once your W request is processed, ordinarily within two business days. 

Note that the W may not appear on your record until the end of the semester when final grades are entered.

Extension Of P/D/F and Withdrawal Deadlines for Spring 2024 Term

Dear Students,   We are writing to update you on two policy changes for the spring semester 2024 that concern the deadlines for Pass/D/Fail and Withdrawal.   • For spring semester 2024, the deadline for electing Pass/D/Fail for courses will be extended to the last day of the semester, April 29, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. EDT.     • For spring semester 2024, the deadline for withdrawing from a course or courses will be extended to April 22, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. EDT. Please allow time in advance of this deadline to seek adviser approval.   The changes have been made to allow students additional time to make their decisions for the spring semester 2024. In the next academic year, Barnard will take under consideration the decision to make the same changes but on a permanent basis.   Please note that these deadlines fall during the week of Passover. We encourage students to make decisions about withdrawals or electing P/D/F in advance of the holiday whenever possible; however, if this is not possible, please contact your dean to make this request as soon as you are able to resume work activities after the holiday.   Please note that all other policies and deadlines remain in effect in spring 2024.   • Students may elect the Pass/D/Fail option for one course per semester. • Courses for the majors or minors are not eligible for Pass/D/Fail. • Students may not withdraw from a course if it brings them below 12 credits unless previously approved for a reduced courseload. Please consult this page of the website for all details on Pass/D/Fail.   We wish you well as we approach the final weeks of the spring semester.   Sincerely,   Holly Tedder Dean for Academic Planning and Class Advising   Jennifer Simmons Registrar
