Withdrawing from TECEPs Gives a "W" Grade

The issue really is more about clarification. There are some schools that will limit someone to a maximum number of W's. If you reach that number, any further attempts to withdraw would result in an F. Excelsior is an example of this. When submitting transcripts for Masters programs, they may have a stricter requirement than the initial school so having an unnecessary W on the transcript is detrimental, even if it is not impacting the current school.

I'm curious as to what the maximum number of W's they will accept?

Alright, thanks everyone for the responses!

I think that there's nothing else that I can do except contact TESU to see if they can at least edit their TECEP page to clarify this policy. I think that's what I'll do.

I don't plan to get another W, so I don't think it'll affect me any more than what I have right now, anyway.

How about you not do that at all. Because that is what people will be using to appeal this awful nonsense. Asking them to adjust the language only hurts students.

6 W's maximum at EU with no more than 3 in a single course.
