Military Withdrawal

Enrolled active duty military personnel or military reservists who receive emergency orders to active duty during the semester may be administratively withdrawn from SWU and receive a full refund of tuition and fees*. The refunding of other charges may be prorated based on the date of the withdrawal. Service members who request a military withdrawal must submit a copy of their official orders to the Office of Academic Records before departure or before grades are posted for the semester to process the withdrawal on the student’s academic record. Military withdrawals may not be granted for TDY (temporary duty), short-term assignments, or for semesters that are complete.

* Students who enlist in the military or the reserves once classes in the semester have begun are not eligible for a military withdrawal during that semester.
