Catalog & Student Handbook

Withdrawals from the College

A student who intends to discontinue enrollment at Berea College first should discuss his or her plans with the Academic Advisor. If the student still wishes to withdraw, s/he should go to the Student Service Center (SSC) to begin the withdrawal process by obtaining a College Clearance Form and consulting with the Director of Academic Services. (See "Voluntary Withdrawal" under Types of Withdrawal for important advice.) If the student still wishes to withdraw from the College, the Clearance Form then must be completed and returned to the SSC with the appropriate signatures. Further information is provided at the time of withdrawal, or students may contact the Student Enrollment Status Manager by e-mail at servicecenter@berea.edu or at (859) 985-3094.

It is very important to notify the College of any change in enrollment status to ensure that records are current and all processes are completed correctly and in a timely fashion. Once the withdrawal process is completed, the student is expected to leave campus within 48 hours, unless special permission has been granted.

If a student has registered for courses in a current or future term, it is the student's responsibility to inform the Student Enrollment Status Manager of any change in enrollment status as soon as possible. Otherwise, the student might be charged with a term of attendance and receive grades of "F" for courses from which the student has not withdrawn officially.
