The course will not count towards the <br />cumulative grade point average (CGPA) or the maximum timeframe. <br />If a student wishes to withdraw from a course after the first seven days and before the sixth week for <br />degree -seeking students or the twelfth week for Diploma students, they may do so as a written request to <br />the Registrar's Office. The student would receive a grade of'W' for the course/term. The'W' would not <br />count towards the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) but would count toward the maximum <br />timeframe. <br />If the student withdraws from the course after the sixth week for degree -seeking students or twelfth <br />week for Diploma students, or is dismissed due to attendance issues, the student will receive a grade of <br />WF' for the course/term. 'WF' is the acronym for "Withdraw Failure" therefore it would count as both a <br />'withdraw' and a 'failure' and be subject to the College's repetition of courses policy. This means that the <br />student fails the course because they withdrew after the designated withdraw period stated above. A <br />'WF' grade counts towards the student's cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and as credits attempted <br />but not credits earned. This would in turn affect the student's Satisfactory Academic Progress and their <br />maximum timeframe. <br />Students withdrawing from a course should discuss the implications of this withdrawal on the student's <br />academic standing, financial aid eligibility and responsibility, and graduation date with the proper <br />department. <br />Pacific College 2020-2021 Catalog 39 <br />
