Medical/compassionate withdrawal request
The College recognizes that serious health matters or other unexpected and uncontrollable circumstances may arise for students that prevent them from successfully completing their studies. Students may request medical/compassionate withdrawal by completing a Medical/Compassionate Withdrawal Request along with any supporting documentation.
Requests are processed based on the date a complete submission is received; incomplete submissions cannot be accepted. Requests received during the current semester (up to the last day of instruction / prior to exams) can be for all or only some of the courses in the semester. Tuition refunds (less deposit) will be considered for requests received prior to 66% of the course instructional period having occurred. Refunds will not be provided after this deadline (the date of illness/injury onset, the last day of attendance, or the date a medical professional was seen are not factors in this regard).
Note: for most courses, students may simply withdraw themselves using myCamosun up to the last day of instruction; a medical withdrawal process is generally unnecessary after the 66% tuition refund deadline, unless seeking retroactive withdrawal from an entire past semester.
After the last day of instruction, a special request for retroactive withdrawal can be requested for the full semester (partial withdraws will not be considered), if the student was incapacitated to the extent they were unable to withdraw earlier. Retroactive withdrawals must include supporting documentation from a health care provider, in addition to the form, and should typically be submitted within three years of the semester.
Grounds for granting requests are determined by the Registrar, and are considered on a case-by-case basis.
Valid grounds / circumstances may include:
- serious medical emergencies, injury, or sudden significant illness (including mental health), which so impairs a student's ability to participate in class(es) that course requirements cannot be satisfied,
- death in the family,
- unexpected, serious illness of a dependent,
- loss of residence (e.g. destructive house fire),
- military transfer.
Invalid grounds may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- not being aware of (or forgetting about) a deadline,
- not knowing how to withdraw,
- computer or connectivity issues,
- anticipated poor grade (or failure) in a course,
- family events, travel plans, changing jobs,
- not securing student loan funding sufficiently in advance,
- not liking an instructor or their teaching style/method,
- not enjoying course content,
- short-term illness (e.g. flu), unless the course has a documented 100% mandatory attendance.
