Petitions for Late & Retroactive Withdrawals
Petitions for Exception to Policy
You must be a declared major or pre-major in the College of Humanities in order to submit petitions for Exception to Policy to this college. All undecided and non-degree seeking students go through the Academic Advising Center.
The University provides means for students to be granted exceptions to University policy. This allows students the chance to petition certain policies for non-academic reasons such as illness, military leave, family emergencies, etc.
Exceptions to policy include:
- Withdraw from a course after the withdrawal deadline for the same term
- Retroactive withdrawal from course(s) for a previous semester
- Retroactive registration
- Section change or cross-referenced course
- Late registration request
- Change in CR/NC status
- Retroactive change in credit hours
This must always be done through the Dean's Office of the college of the student's major.
Forms
To petition University policy you must obtain the necessary digital forms from the Registrar's Office and submit them via email to the College of Humanities Dean's Office: karen.marsh@utah.edu.
The necessary forms and all supporting documentation must be received before the Dean's Office will consider your petition. Once your forms and supporting documentation has been received it will be reviewed within 7 days and a recommendation will be sent to the Registrar's Office.
