Is this a medical withdrawal?

Goodwin University, upon request and with appropriate documentation, may medically withdraw students from their courses due to serious medical conditions that prohibit the student from completing their courses. Students are required to complete a course withdrawal form with their advisor to withdraw from their courses. The request for withdrawal and relevant documentation must be received by the module or semester withdrawal date as indicated in the University catalog. In addition, Medical Withdrawals may affect a student’s academic progress. Please refer to the Satisfactory Academic Progress section in the catalog. Medical Withdrawals will be reviewed by the Record Review Committee (RRC) and will be notified via their Goodwin University email.

Please describe your issue or concern in the space below. Be as specific as possible by indicating particular semester, year, course, etc. In addition, please list any dates and/or Goodwin University staff members who may have played a role in your situation. Forms that are not completely filled out will be returned and not considered until they are complete.

Please be specific in what you are looking for as a solution to your situation. The more precise you are about your expectations, the better equipped we'll be to address your situation effectively.
