undergraduate bulletin - LaGrange College

Please note: This policy does not obviate the possibility of an ―administrative‖ withdrawal (in
the case, for example, of a student who is disruptive of the learning experience of others) or a
medical withdrawal (see below).
To withdraw from an individual course, a student must confer with the SOURCE Center. Failure
to withdraw officially through this office may result in the assignment of an "F." A student who
wishes to withdraw completely from the College must confer with the Director of Counseling.
MEDICAL WITHDRAWAL
―Medical withdrawal‖ is defined as complete withdrawal without academic penalty for reasons
of health. Except in circumstances of emergency, a licensed health care provider or a qualified
counselor must provide a written recommendation for medical withdrawal to the Provost. This
written recommendation must be on file prior to approval for withdrawal. Anytime medical
withdrawal is initiated, the student‘s instructors, the Office of Financial Aid, the SOURCE
Center, and the Business Office will be notified by the Registrar. The re-entry of the student
following medical withdrawal for medical reasons requires a clearance from the attending
physician, a licensed health care provider, or a qualified counselor with an evaluation of the
student‘s potential to resume study successfully at LaGrange College. The Provost will review
this evaluation and make the decision concerning the student‘s re-entry.
TRANSCRIPTS
Students are entitled to transcripts of their record free of charge. No transcripts will be issued for
any student who is under financial obligation to the College. Transcript requests must be made in
writing to the Registrar well in advance of the time the transcript is needed. Transcripts will be
issued promptly; however, at the beginning and end of terms, some delay may be unavoidable.
Unofficial transcripts may be obtained from the online student module of the Web.
