Withdrawals

Admission

Withdrawing from your program or courses

You can officially withdraw from a course or program before the withdrawal deadline. Withdrawal will result in a “W” grade on your transcript, and your refund (if eligible) is based on when VCC receives your written request.

Submit your withdrawal request

To withdraw, complete and submit the Course Add/Drop & Program Withdrawal Form.

Refund eligibility and deadlines

Refunds depend on when your written withdrawal request is received. The tuition deposit and admin fees are non-refundable.
