Withdrawals & Refunds

Withdrawals

Policies on withdrawal depend on whether or not the student is enrolled as a student at the University of Mississippi. Within those two categories there are rules. All Flex students (UM and non-UM) are required to submit the Withdrawal Request Questionnaire located within their iStudy application. Flex students will not be officially withdrawn unless the iStudy office receives this submitted questionnaire directly via their application. The iStudy withdrawal questionnaire is required because Flex courses cannot be dropped through myOleMiss.

Semester courses:
A University of Mississippi student taking a Semester course(s) can only withdraw when the semester withdrawal period is open, per the academic calendar. 

Flex Courses:
A University of Mississippi student taking a Flex course(s) can only withdraw before reaching the course midpoint and before the course expiration date. 

See the section on Withdrawals for more information.

Non-UM student:
A non-University of Mississippi student may withdraw from a course at any time prior to taking the final exam with no academic penalty for withdrawal, and no grade will be recorded.

To apply for a withdrawal, please fill out the iStudy Withdrawal Request located within your application. You will need to log back into your iStudy application to find the iStudy Withdrawal Request.

Refunds

Flex Courses:
For students taking a Flex course(s), a refund of 100% is given when students withdraw within thirty days of enrollment.

See the section on refunds for more information.
