(There is no grade of “D” in the Grading Scale) 

Withdrawing from a Course 

Students may drop a course within the first 5 MTSA business days of the semester with no grade. 

Grade of Withdrew (W) 

Students wishing to withdraw from the course after the first 5 MTSA business days of the semester will either receive a grade of “W” or “WF.” To receive a W grade, a student must drop the course within the first 60% of the semester. A “W” grade does not impact a student’s GPA. 

Grade of Withdrew Failing (WF) 

Students wishing to withdraw from the course after the deadline to withdraw with a “W” grade (see above) will receive a grade of “WF.” A WF grade is calculated into a student’s GPA as a failing grade (F). 

Terminated (T) 

An administratively terminated student is issued a final grade of "T" for all courses in which he/she is currently enrolled, and the termination is noted on the student's transcript.
