Call to Active Duty
If you are called to active duty in the middle of a semester, you have the option to withdraw and receive a refund or delay completion of the course.
- To extend the course, present a copy of your orders to your faculty for each couse. They will work with you to determine if an extension or withdrawal of the course will be more to your benefit. If the course is extended, you will enter into a contract for an Incomplete Grade and the terms will be communicated and agreed upon before you go to your training.
- If you decide to withdraw, you must submit a Student Appeal with a copy of your orders.
