Withdrawal Procedures
See the Class Schedule or web for more details ** Please note the difference between the terms “drop” and “withdraw”.

See the web page for details: Summer 2023 – Office of the Registrar – The University of Utah
Withdrawals for term length classes after June 23rd will only be granted due to compelling, nonacademic emergencies. Please contact coepetitions@utah.edu to schedule an appointment to discuss the petition process. Petitions must be received before the last day of classes (August 2, 2023).
Repeating Courses
When a John and Marcia Price College of Engineering class is taken more than once, only the grade for the second attempt is counted. Grades of W, I, or V on the student’s record count as having taken the class. Departments enforce these guidelines for other courses as well (e.g., math, physics biology, chemistry). Attempts of courses taken at transfer institutions count as one attempt. This means a student may take the course only one time at the University of Utah. Courses taken at the University of Utah may not be taken a second time at another institution. If a second attempt is needed, it must be at the University of Utah. Please work with your department advisor to determine the value of repeating courses. Students should note that anyone who takes a required class twice and does not have a satisfactory grade the second time may not be able to graduate. It is the responsibility of the student to work with the department of their major to determine how this policy applies in extenuating circumstances.
