Ron and Kathy Assaf College of Nursing (ACON) 2025–2026 106 Drops during the first week of the semester in which classes begin............................................75 percent Drops after the first week of the semester in which classes begin................................................No refund The withdrawal period starts with the second week of the semester and ends three weeks prior to the end of the semester. Students Enrolled in Programs that Have Drop/Add Programs Students enrolled in programs that have a drop/add period will have until 11:59 p.m., the Sunday of the start of the semester—which is the end of the drop/add period—to make changes in their schedule without incurring any financial expenses. Students who drop during the first week of classes will receive a reversal of 75 percent of their charged tuition. Students who drop after the first week of the semester will not be entitled to receive a refund. The start time of the semester may be adjusted based upon on the changes made to the university calendar. Withdrawals remain on the student transcripts as a notation of W, but will not affect the student’s grade point average (GPA). There is no financial refund when a student withdraws from a course. Not attending classes does not constitute an official withdrawal, and the student will receive grades based on course requirements and completed work. Readmission All students wishing to be readmitted to a nursing course from which they have withdrawn must notify the dean of Academic Programs or program director at least during the application cycle prior to their desired reentry date. Reenrollment in clinical courses is on a space-available basis. Because the second enrollment, if granted (postwithdrawal), is the last time for students to successfully accomplish course objectives, students are encouraged to realistically assess those factors that inhibited their accomplishment during the previous enrollment (financial limitations, family obligations, personal concerns, reading skills, etc.). Only when such an assessment has been made and necessary corrective steps taken, should students attempt a nursing course for the second time. Readmission Following Dismissal B.S.N., A.P.R.N., D.N.P., and Ph.D. students—once dismissed—will not be able to reenter the program. Ph.D. students who fail the comprehensive exam will not be eligible for readmission. Prior to application, the applicant must meet with the program director and petition for readmission. The applicant must submit to the program director a written statement along with the application establishing that the factors that caused the prior inadequate academic performance, inappropriate conduct or professionalism issues, or reason for academic inactivity, have changed significantly so that there is reasonable expectation that the applicant can perform satisfactorily if permitted to resume studies. This should be documented in the student’s file. Readmission will be at the discretion of the program director. The ACON reserves the right to place specific conditions on a student’s readmission, including whether prior course credits earned and/or failed will carry over once readmitted.
