What is a WF or WU and how do I obtain one?
A WF is a withdrawal from a course after the deadline. It is essentially equivalent to an F in the sense that it counts as an F on the GPA but appears as a WF on the transcript. You can take one up until the last day of classes by making an appointment with an academic advisor. A WU is be granted under the same terms, but only applies to a class in which a student is currently enrolled on an S / U basis. Like the WF, no academic credit is received, but unlike the WF, there is no effect on the GPA in the case of a WU.
