Life happens. In many situations, students are not aware of the types of withdrawal from courses available to them at the university. On occasion, a student may need to drop all of their classes and start fresh, moving forward. Total Withdrawal means that the student is withdrawing from all courses between the time after the schedule adjustment period has ended and before or on the last Friday before finals.

When you request a Total Withdrawal or reach out with questions, you will be assigned a counselor who has been trained to assist students with this process. Every effort is made to ensure you meet with a counselor with whom you already have a personal relationship at Marshall. Your counselor is not there to change or make up your decision, but to help you understand the possible impacts of a Total Withdrawal on you – including your transcript, financial aid and scholarships, housing, and other areas.

Graduate student total withdrawals will be completed by Dr. Jay Rader.

Our goal with the Total Withdrawal Counseling program is to put you in touch with a counselor to listen to your concerns and help you determine the best courses of action for you.
