Many students turn to withdrawal as a solution to a problem which can be solved by other means.
I encourage you to talk about the necessity for this option with me or your advisor before you automatically select it. You have until the eighth calendar day after the midquarter to withdraw. Thereafter, you must seek my permission to withdraw. I do not grant permission to withdraw after the time permitted unless I would otherwise grant an Incomplete, only you choose not to receive one. I am old fashioned enough to think that taking classes in college requires commitment and that the role of the instructor has something of the gentle disciplinarian in it which is designed to keep you mindful of the promises you have made to yourself.
