To set up a Guest Center account:

  1. Go to http://uaccess.arizona.edu, click on Student Center in the Students column, and log in with your UA NetID and password.
  2. Go to the UA Guest Center box in the right column (toward the bottom), and click on Guest Manager.

    • Financial Info (View To-Do List, Award Summary including Award Letter, Make Payment, and Parent Plus Loan).
  1. Click the Save button.
  2. Click the OK button to activate the account on the Confirm Activation page. (Click the Cancel button if you are not ready to activate this Guest, and the information from the previous page will be saved for you to come back and activate later).

Once the account is activated, an email will be sent to your Guest with the username and password. Your Guest can go to uaccess.arizona.edu, click on Guest Center in the Students column, and log in with the username and password provided. They will be able to see and do only what you have permitted in Guest Access Control.

  2. From the UA User Profiles Page, click on “Advanced Search.”

UA NetID

Your UA NetID is your personal identifier for several online services at the University of Arizona. Some of the services requiring a NetID include:

  • Email and UITS computing accounts (CatMail, UAConnect, HPC)
  • UAccess applications (Student, Employee, Analytics, etc.)
  • D2L – a web-based course management system used in 700+ courses on campus
  • New Employee Resources and Benefits Enrollment
  • University site-licensed software
  • OSCR computer labs

Why is the UA NetID necessary?

The UA NetID verifies your identity when used for the University of Arizona’s online services. It helps ensure the privacy of personal information and restricts the use of resources to those for whom they are intended.

If you are a student who needs to share information in your UAccess Student account with someone else, establish a Guest Center account for those you want to share your information with and keep your NetID password private.

How to create your UA NetID

Creating a UA NetID requires an EMPLID, an 8-digit number provided via email. If the EMPLID is unknown, the user must contact HR (for staff and faculty) or the Registrar (for students). Because the EMPLID is a secure identifier, the 24/7 IT Support Center will not provide an EMPLID to a user.

Creating a NetID also requires a date of birth and a PIN. For students, the PIN is on the letter of acceptance.

  • Select “Create UA NetID”
  • Follow the instructions to create your UA NetID.

VT Username Requirements;

  • Length: between 3 – 16 characters
  • Must start with a letter (not a number)
  • Must contain only letters and numbers (no spaces or special characters)

How do I drop out of UGA?

0

How do I drop out of UGA?. In the Office of Student Academic Services our community is enhanced by diversity, and the differences among us shape the culture of our team. We believe it is each person’s right to be fully who they are, and that characteristics of race, gender and gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, religion, ability, language, and national origin are contributing factors to personhood.

How do I drop out of UGA?

How can I withdraw?

You can initiate a withdrawal in Athena. Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to Athena
  2. Choose “Student” > “Student & Registration” > “Registration”>”Register for Classes”
  3. From there, you will see a list of the courses in which you are registered.
  4. For the course you want to drop, choose “Action” > “Course Withdrawal.”
  5. Submit Changes.
  6. This will then show an updated list of courses including the withdrawn course which should now read “Course withdrawn on xxxxxxxx (date)”
  7. Log out or return to main menu for other options.

Note: If you have ANY holds in Athena other than advising for a future semester, you cannot withdraw until you clear them. University offices (which may help you clear some holds) are open only on weekdays from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. You can see What happens when you withdraw from a class at UGA?

Should I talk to the professor before withdrawing from a class?

It is always prudent to speak with the professor before withdrawing from a class. Ask if there is a way to improve your performance in the class before withdrawing.

If the course I wish to withdraw from has a co-requisite class, must I withdraw from both?

Yes. In Athena, students cannot withdraw from a course with a co-requisite unless they withdraw from the co-requisite class as well. Students will receive an error message notifying them that their withdrawal will not be complete until they withdraw from the co-requisite. Students may remain in one of the co-requisite courses only if they are given an override by the department that offers the course. It is up to the department whether or not to give the student an override to remain in one of the co-requisite courses. To determine if a course has a co-requisite, please visit the Courses tab in the UGA Bulletin. If you wish to withdraw from CHEM 1211 but stay in BIOL 1107, OR if you wish to withdraw from the BIOL 1107 or 1108 lecture but keep the lab, please send an email to [email protected] with your 811 number and CRN numbers for the courses you are in. You can see University of Georgia – UGA Academic Calendar 2022/2023 | UGA Important Dates and Deadlines

What other things do I need to consider before withdrawing from a class?

If withdrawing from a class will change your status to a part-time student (below 12 hours), these could be affected:

  • Your housing status (University Housing/706-542-1421)
  • Your athletic status (Athletic Dept/706-542-1847)
  • Immigration status (International Education/706-542-7903)
  • Your financial aid (Student Financial Aid/706-542-6147)
  • Veteran’s benefits (Veterans Benefits/Registrar/706-542-8772)
  • Your health and automobile insurance coverage
  • Eligibility for sports tickets

What if I want to withdraw from all of my courses?

If you are withdrawing because of circumstances beyond your control (financial difficulties, illness (physical or mental), a death in the family, etc…), please consider seeking a hardship withdrawal from the Office of Student Care and Outreach.  They can provide you with resources and support. If you believe you qualify for a hardship withdrawal and can provide documentation, contact Student Care and Outreach: 325 Tate Student Center  706-542-7774

What happens when you withdraw from a class at UGA?

What happens when you withdraw from a class at UGA?. If a student withdraws before the semester’s withdrawal deadline, the student will receive a grade of W. An instructor may withdraw a student from a course due to excessive absences as defined in the course syllabus, and the student will receive a grade of W

What happens when you withdraw from a class at UGA?

Withdrawals

Students who withdraw from courses before the withdrawal deadline (two weeks after the midpoint, as specified by the academic calendar) will receive a grade of W. Withdrawals from courses will not be permitted after the withdrawal deadline except in cases of hardship as determined by the Office of Student Care and Outreach (SCO) within the Division of Student Affairs.  Students with an active financial or registration hold on their record must clear that hold before being able to withdraw from their coursework.

Students may drop one, some, or all of their classes during the drop/add period. Courses dropped in this manner do not appear on a student’s transcript and are not considered as hours attempted for financial aid purposes. No grade is assigned for such courses. However, a student who wishes to withdraw from a course after the last day of the drop period for a term must withdraw through Athena.

If a student withdraws before the semester’s withdrawal deadline, the student will receive a grade of W. An instructor may withdraw a student from a course due to excessive absences as defined in the course syllabus, and the student will receive a grade of W.

If the student does not initiate the withdrawal, the Registrar will notify the instructor and the student of the withdrawal.

If a student experiences significant personal hardship (e.g., medical or family emergency, prolonged illness), SCO can approve a hardship withdrawal from all courses in the term for which the student is currently registered. In the case of an approved hardship withdrawal from all courses, the Registrar will assign grades of W for those classes. The instructor must be informed of the assignment of the W grade. The deadline for final approval of a hardship withdrawal by SCO is the withdrawal deadline of the semester following the semester for which the hardship withdrawal is sought (e.g. withdrawal deadline of summer semester is the deadline for a spring semester hardship request). If the hardship withdrawal process is not complete by the withdrawal deadline of the following semester, a student must appeal for a retroactive hardship withdrawal from the Educational Affairs Committee.

A hardship withdrawal cannot ordinarily be used to withdraw selectively from some courses while remaining enrolled in other courses. Selective withdrawal will be permitted only under exceptional circumstances. In these cases, SCO will document the hardship and work with the Registrar’s Office to assign a withdrawal grade for each course.

Each year, SCO will submit a written report to the Educational Affairs Committee summarizing the number of hardship withdrawals granted (both complete and partial) within the past year and, in the case of partial hardship withdrawals, the circumstances justifying the use of a partial withdrawal.

Appeals for retroactive hardship withdrawals must be directed to the Educational Affairs Committee. Retroactive hardship withdrawals are rarely granted if it has been more than two years since the last day of class for which the withdrawal is sought. Extraordinary justification must be shown. In the case of approved retroactive hardship withdrawals, the Registrar will assign a grade of W. The instructor who originally assigned the grade must be informed of the change of grade.

If a student is suspended by the Office of Student Conduct following a violation of the University’s Code of Conduct not related to academic dishonesty, the Office of Student Conduct may facilitate a University-initiated withdrawal from courses for which a student is registered for the term. The Registrar will assign grades of W for those classes. The instructor must be informed of the assignment of the W grade.

All probation and exclusion rules apply regardless of the circumstances of the withdrawal. For more information, see General Academic Regulations related to Academic Probation and Academic Dismissal.

No student shall be withdrawn from a course for lack of a prerequisite after the end of one calendar week from the beginning of the term.

No refund is available for a reduction in hours due to individual course withdrawals that occur after the drop/add period.

Students should be aware that a reduction in their hours might result in the loss of full-time student status and thus affect their financial aid, scholarships, athletic and ticket eligibility, University housing accommodations, use of University resources and access to University facilities, immigration status for international students, and Veterans Educational Benefits. Students should contact the appropriate office and their academic advisor with questions about the impact of their withdrawal from a course before initiating a withdrawal. Students who are returning from academic dismissal are advised to consult with their academic advisor prior to withdrawal because violation of the minimum enrollment requirements can lead to a second dismissal from the University. Veterans and dependents of veterans who receive educational benefits must notify the Veterans Education Benefits Area in the Office of the Registrar of any course load reductions.

Dropping Courses Vs Withdrawing

Dropping a CourseWithdrawing from a Course
“Dropping” a course means you dropped it before the end of the drop/add periodA student “withdraws” from a course after the end of the drop/add period
Credit hours for dropped courses are not included in your hours of enrollment for financial aidGenerally results in a grade of W, WP, or WF
Dropped courses do not count in your HOPE/Zell Miller or Undergraduate Admissions Academic Scholarship attempted hoursWithdrawn hours count in your HOPE/Zell Miller or Undergraduate Admissions Academic Scholarship attempted hours
Dropped hours do not appear on your transcriptWithdrawn hours appear on your transcript
Repayment of financial aid may be required if it was previously disbursed to you based on planned enrollment and then you drop coursesStudents who withdraw from all of their courses may need to repay a portion of their student financial aid
Withdrawn hours count toward Satisfactory Academic Progress calculations

Dropping a Course(s):

Dropping a course(s) prior to the last date of the official Drop/Add period results in a reevaluation of the student’s Enrollment Status for Financial Aid Purposes and his or her financial aid eligibility for that term.

Credit hours for dropped courses are not included in determining a student’s enrollment status for Federal Student Aid (FSA).  Neither do they count for HOPE and Zell Miller Scholarships or UGA scholarship eligibility determination purposes, nor are they included in determining the student’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).

No courses or grades are posted to the student’s academic transcript for dropped hours.

Any tuition and any related fee charges for the dropped course(s) are returned to the appropriate financial aid program(s).

Student repayment may be required if financial aid was previously disbursed to the student based on the subsequently dropped credit hours.

Also see the Office of the Registrar’s Registration Overview for more information about the registration process.

Summer Pell Grant recipients should review the “Important Note” at the bottom of this page.

Withdrawing or being Withdrawn from a Course(s):

Withdrawing from a course(s) following the end of the semester’s Drop/Add period historically resulted in the assignment of a grade of W,WP,or WF.  Effective the Fall Semester of 2014, students who withdraw from courses before the semester’s withdrawal deadline will receive a W grade. All types of W grades and the course hours associated with them are still considered as attempted hours for the purposes of determining Federal Student Aid(FSA), State of Georgia aid (such as the HOPE and Zell Miller Scholarships) and UGA scholarship eligibility, and they are included in both the quantitative and qualitative portions of the financial aid Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards.

Also see the Office of the Registrar’s Policy on Withdrawals for more information about the withdrawal process.

Summer Pell Grant recipients should review the “Important Note” at the bottom of this page.

Withdrawing or being Withdrawn from All Courses:

Withdrawing from all courses can affect a student’s financial aid eligibility as cited under the preceding topic.  In addition, when a student withdraws or is withdrawn from all his or her courses prior to completing more than 60 percent of the term, federal financial aid regulations generally require the student to repay a portion of the federal student aid received during the term. The amount of any required aid repayment is calculated by UGA Student Accounts according to the federally prescribed formula.

Also see the Office of the Registrar’s Policy on Withdrawals for more information about the withdrawal process.

Important Note Regarding Summer Pell Grant:

If a student drops or withdraws from a course prior to the end of the Short Session II drop/add period then that course must be removed from Pell Grant enrollment status.  Please review the Office of the Registrar’s Academic Calendar to determine the end of the Short Session II drop/add period.

Any classes dropped or withdrawn prior to this date cannot be counted for Pell Grant enrollment status. For example, if you enroll in 12 hours during Summer term and withdraw from 3 hours before the end of the Short Session II drop/add period, you will be considered ¾ time for Pell Grant purposes. This may result in a Pell Grant repayment if you have already received Summer Pell Grant for 12 hours.
