Request for a Full Withdrawal with Extenuating Circumstances
Student Assistance and Support Services (SASS) manages the process for Full Withdrawals due to Extenuating Circumstances (WE) when the request is made during the current term for which the request applies. All Full WE requests require a consultation with the Assistant Director for Withdrawal Services or other available staff member in the SASS Office. SASS staff will review your request form once submitted and send an official letter via email to your UNC Charlotte email address. This letter will outline in detail your next steps and action items, including how to schedule the Full WE Consultation meeting and any additional requirements. Students who do not complete all steps of the Full WE process, as outlined on the Withdrawal Website, will result in your request not being processed. All questions on this form must be answered in order to accept your request form and move forward with the Full WE process.
Students should carefully review all information related to the Full WE process, deadlines, and implications prior to submitting a request form.
You should not fill out this form if any of the following reasons applies to your withdrawal request:
You have already self-withdrawn from your classes for the current term
Your primary reason for wanting a withdrawal is due to you failing a class or not doing well (with no other extenuating circumstances)
You are wanting a withdrawal for a term other than the current term (please review the process for submitting an academic petition for a late withdrawal, as SASS cannot assist with requests for previously completed terms)
You are transferring or leaving the University after completing the current semester
