What is a “WP” or “WF” grade?
Withdrawing from a Course In extraordinary situations, a “WP” (withdrawn passing) or “WF” (withdrawn failing) grade may be assigned at the instructor’s discretion upon the student’s request to a student who becomes unable to complete some course requirements after the course adjustment deadline. The form (e.g., verbal, written) and timing of such requests are determined by individual instructors; the student is responsible for ensuring that the request is made in an appropriate manner and at an appropriate time. In response to such a request, the instructor may choose to record a grade of “WP” or “WF”, but is not obligated to do so (and may record any grade other than “W”).
