WN Grade Eligibility
Students who attend one or more classes are not eligible for the WN grade.

Faculty are asked to assign a grade of WN (withdrawal for non attendance) to students who have never attended a single class during the first 11 class days of the Fall and Spring Semesters and first 5 class days of the Summer I and Summer II terms.

Although faculty are asked to assign WNs it is often difficult to track attendance during the first few days because of the University’s flexible course add/drop policy.

Financial Obligations
The WN grade removes all financial obligations associated with the course.

Student Responsibility
Students are responsible for dropping/withdrawing from all classes they are not attending. Student should not depend on the University to assign a grade of WN. Students should review their schedule of classes using Self Service to make sure their enrollment is accurate. They should check their midterm grades as soon as they are available to confirm their enrollment is still accurate. Students should check their transcript at the end of final grading each semester to be sure it accurately reflects their enrollment and grades. Failure to do so could result in unnecessary financial obligations and inappropriate grades (usually F’s).

Students who find a mistake need to contact the Registrar’s Office for proper procedures immediately upon discovery. It is the student’s responsibility to make sure their transcript is an accurate reflection of the student’s registration and participation in the course(s) at ASU.

The WN grade will only be granted or may be appealed through the first day of classes of the following fall or spring semester, whichever comes first.
