A withdrawal from a class (W) is GPA-neutral: instead of a grade, you receive a W notation on your transcript which does not affect your GPA; you also don't earn credits for the course.
Students who wish to withdraw from all courses prior to the start of the term, must contact the Student Affairs Office at 617-573-8239, located on the 12th floor of 73 Tremont Street, and submit a Leave of Absence Form or a Withdrawal Form. The Leave of Absence Form and Withdrawal Forms are available online.
A student may withdraw from a course and receive a W any time during the course withdrawal period. To officially withdraw from a class, complete the Course Withdrawal form and submit it to the Registrar office within the Course Withdrawal Period listed above.
If you leave Suffolk Law for any reason, you must file request for a Leave of Absence or Withdrawal with the Law Dean of Students Office. Not completing the appropriate withdrawal or leave of absence forms can prove costly since students will be assessed tuition charges for a semester not completed.
If you decide to leave, you'll need to meet with your personal tutor to inform them of your plans. You'll then need to obtain and fill out the necessary withdrawal forms provided by your faculty office. Only when these have been submitted and approved can you arrange an official leaving date with your department.
If a student wishes to withdraw or take a leave of absence from a term, the student must contact the Office of Student Affairs to complete the appropriate forms. The date the student contacts Student Affairs is the official withdrawal date.
Students can submit and receive approval for a withdrawal any time up until two-thirds of the part of term. To submit an appeal to withdraw after the two-thirds deadline, a student must first provide a completed Appeal for Course Withdrawal form to the faculty member informing the faculty Page 3 3 of their request.
