Guidelines on Withdrawal from FSUU

Effective First Semester AY 2020-2021

Rationale
Father Saturnino Urios University allows its students to select subjects and decide on the
number of units they will enroll in a semester within the bounds of the general academic policies and the Admission and Retention Policies of the different programs. The University also ensures that its students follow the appropriate academic track and graduate on time or within the allowable residency period of a particular program.

Guided by the policies and in consideration of the present conditions, the University sets modified guidelines on Changing, Dropping and Adding (CDA) of Subjects and Withdrawal effective this First Semester of AY 2020-2021.

Definition of Terms

CDA – refers to the Changing, Dropping and Adding of Subjects processes

Adding (of Subject) – is the enlistment of subject/s in addition to the current enrolled load.

Changing (of Subject) – involves the processes of dropping a particular subject and adding of another subject

Dropping (of Subject) – is the delistment from one or more subjects, but not all, without enrolling another subject/s as its replacement.

Withdrawal - is officially dropping all enrolled subjects with the approval of the Dean and the Registrar, and information of Cashier, DAO, Accounting and OSAA.

DROPPED or DRP – is the grade/remark given to a student when after incurring more than six (6) absences from the class/subject as determined by the instructor. A DRP
grade is also given to a student who only officially withdraws her/his enrollment
after the midterm exams.

WITHDRAWN or W– is the final grade/remark given to a student who officially withdraws all her/his subjects before the midterm exams.

Withdrawal before the start of classes:

2.1 In case of withdrawal from enrollment, the required initial payment and other fees collected are not refundable.

A student is considered enrolled as soon as the G Suite and FSUU Learn

The student has to write a letter addressed to the VP for Academic Affairs and Research and send it to vpacad@urios.edu.ph.

4. Payment of Outstanding Balance. A student is considered officially dropped/withdrawn once the Data Administration Office (DAO), after reflecting the debit or withdrawal charges, has reflected her/his dropped/withdrawn status in the
