If you wish to drop all of your courses before the official end of the add/drop period, you should do so through self service or in the Registration Office, G-1 Thackeray Hall. If you drop all of your courses you will not be liable for your term tuition and fees and your registration will become void.

After the end of the add/drop period and before sixty percent of the term has expired, you must notify Student Appeals by email, phone or in person if you wish to resign from all of your courses.

• Your registration and term tuition charges will be adjusted in accordance with the official University Title IV Refund Policy.
• You must do this even if you are only registered for one course or one credit.
• If you have housing and/or food service charges, you must notify Panther Central immediately.
• There is a special resignation hotline, 412-624-7585 which operates 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays. The message on this line will ask you for some basic information.
• You can e-mail your resignation request. Please provide your:
  • full name
  • student ID number
  • daytime phone number
  • the term from which you intend to resign
  • and the reason you are resigning
  
  We will contact you to verify the information you provide.

If you resign after the last day of the add/drop period, you are liable for a percentage of your charges and will be issued "R" grades on your transcript, denoting resignation. "R" grades do not count toward your degree or grade point average.

Once the resignation period has expired (sixty percent of the term); students must withdraw from their classes through the appropriate Dean's Office.

 

• There will be no financial adjustment for withdrawing.

Summer term resignations and withdrawals are handled on a case by case basis dependent upon the different sessions for which the student is registered.

For more information regarding this process please refer to the University of Pittsburgh Policy              09-05-08, Termination of Registration
