On the 13th day of classes of a major semester, instructors will verify class rosters.

Students who have never attended a class meeting will be administratively withdrawn, and all applicable charges will be reversed.

Students who have attended at least one class meeting but have stopped attending are subject to the Class Attendance Policy. This process does not apply to the summer session.

A student may withdraw from a course and receive a "W" grade on their transcript if the withdrawal occurs before the end of the tenth full week of a semester.

For a summer session or short course, the withdrawal must occur before two-thirds of the instructional days have elapsed.

A student who fails to follow proper KSU withdrawal procedures will receive a grade of "F" in that course.

An instructor may initiate the administrative withdrawal procedure for a student who is in jeopardy of failing due to missed classes or assignments. For online courses, this applies to students who miss two or more assignments.

The administrative withdrawal period is from week three through week eight of a semester.

Before notifying the Registrar, the instructor must first contact Student Success, which will attempt to contact the student and develop a plan for success.

If Student Success cannot contact the student within one week, the withdrawal process will proceed. An administrative withdrawal is marked as "AW" on the student's transcript.
