Excused Withdrawal (EW)-
An Excused Withdrawal "EW" occurs when a student is permitted to withdraw from a course(s) due to specific events beyond the control of the student and may include:
- a job transfer outside the geographical region,
- an illness in the family where the student is the primary caregiver,
- the student who is incarcerated in a California county jail or state prison and is released from custody or involuntarily transferred before the end of the term,
- the student is the subject of an immigration action, or
- other extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the student affecting his/her ability to complete a course(s).
Verifiable documentation may be provided to Admissions and Records but is not required. The "EW" grade on your academic records does not count in the calculation of probation or dismissal and is not counted as an enrollment attempt for purposes of course repetition.
NOTE: The "EW" grade on your academic records does count in the Federal financial aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Calculations.
A student should consult with the Financial Aid staff regarding any impact.
