Definitions


CWU Deadlines are set well in advance and are firm. Please plan and communicate in order to avoid missed deadlines.

 

Registration Period: The time allotted for the students to register, which opens at midnight on the first day and closes at 11:59 p.m. on the closing deadline. The online system automatically shuts down at that time, which means no additional registrations can be submitted through the online platform.

Drop: Students may change their minds and drop a class with no penalty if they, or their school, notify CWU CiHS in writing or through the registration portal before the Drop deadline. Typically, the date is the same as the last date of the registration period. The class will be removed from the CWU transcript, and no fees will be assessed.

Late registration requests can be made with support from the teacher and principal. If the teacher and principal support a student who has missed the registration deadline due to extenuating circumstances, outside the student's control, please use the Late Registration Request.

Reviewer Recommendation: The high school review is due by this date. Counselors or administrators have until this date to add required information within the cihs.cwu.edu registration platform.

Parental Consent Deadline: Parents or Guardians must give consent by this date. All registrations require parent/guardian consent.

Individual/Uncontested Withdrawal: Applies when students have remained enrolled past the drop deadline and wish to withdraw from one class and remain enrolled in at least one CWU course. Students will receive a +W on their transcript per withdrawn course and if applicable, the student/school will be invoiced for the class.

Complete Withdrawal: Applies when students are withdrawing from all enrolled CWU courses for the term. Students may withdraw from all classes for the enrolled term at any time prior to the established deadline. A complete withdrawal from the courses will be noted on the student’s transcripts with a W per withdrawn course. If applicable, the student/school will be invoiced for the class(s).

Hardship Withdrawal Petition: Applies when the individual course withdrawal deadline has passed, and the students is requesting to be withdrawn from an individual course but remain enrolled in at least one CWU course. Hardship withdrawal petitions should only be submitted if the student has experienced extenuating circumstances/presents a hardship that affects their ability to finish the course. If approved, they will receive a HW on their CWU transcript and if applicable, the student/school will be invoiced for the class.

Grades Due: Instructors must post their CWU grades in their faculty MyCWU grade roster by 5:00 pm on this deadline.

It is the Student and High School’s responsibility to provide the CWU High School Partnerships Office prompt notification when a student has dropped or withdrawn from a CWU course.

CWU encourages all students who are considering Withdrawal to seek advising. Once withdrawn a student cannot be reenrolled for the same class/term. Drop/withdrawal requests will be processed in accordance with the appropriate calendar and the stated academic and financial consequences will apply. See more about Withdrawals
