Mid-term reminder

Just reminder to everyone that while the midpoint of fall semester is Thursday, October 9, the midpoint withdrawal deadline is Thursday, October 23. With the new withdrawal policies in place, you'll now typically receive a WP (withdraw passing) instead of a W, though it is within the discretion of an instructor to issue a WF (withdraw failing) for drops made prior to the deadline if they feel it is warranted.

Also remember the new university policy on withdrawals; starting this semester you are allowed a maximum of 4 course drops during your undergraduate academic career at UGA. There are exceptions to this policy which include military, medical, and hardship withdrawals.
