Policy:
The University of Arkansas at Little Rock defines a withdrawal as dropping all of your classes for the semester.
Students voluntarily withdrawing from UA Little Rock must complete the University Withdrawal Form to officially update their educational records. Those students receiving financial aid will need to have an exit interview with a staff member in the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. The last day to officially withdraw from the university without a grade penalty is listed in the academic calendar. Students who fail to officially withdraw will be reported as having failed the course work for the semester and grades of F will appear on their official transcripts. Students who have questions about withdrawing should contact the Office of Records and Registration.
Any student who officially withdraws or drops a course from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock shall be entitled to a refund of tuition and fees as follows:
Any student who withdraws or drops prior to the first day of class will be refunded at 100%. Note: Programs that have Board approved special refund policies will supersede this policy.
| Semester | 100% |
|---|---|
| Sixteen-week courses (Fall & Spring) | First through the tenth-class day |
| Ten to twelve-week courses | First through the tenth-class day |
| Seven to nine-week courses | First through the seventh-class day |
| Five- or six-week courses | First through the fifth-class day |
You may withdraw from the university in one of two ways:
- Online, or
- In person visit to the Office of Records and Registration.
Whenever possible, students should submit the University Withdrawal Form online via our automated process.
If you are withdrawing in person you must come by the Office of Records and Registration with a photo ID and you will be guided through the online withdrawal form.
