Undergraduate Semester Withdrawal Procedures

Students seeking a semester withdrawal from the university must initiate the semester withdrawal process with their major college advising office during the semester in which the student wishes to withdraw.

International students are required to comply with SEVIS Rules and Regulations by providing documentation to the International Student and Faculty Office. Prior to requesting a semester withdrawal through their college advisement office, all international-status students must contact the International Student and Faculty Office at 815-753-1346.

All other students who semester withdraw from the university are required to:

• Semester withdrawal from the university through their college advisement office by filling out the semester withdrawal form.
• If you live in a university residence hall or apartment, you must formally cancel your housing contract with a contract release and properly check out from your residence within 24 hours of semester withdrawal from the university. This includes removing your personal items, returning your keys, and going through the room inventory with a staff member. Students will continue to accrue charges if their belongings are not removed.
