Withdrawals are processed only if the student completes and submits for signature(s) the required withdrawal form(s) available from the Admissions Office. If you are considered a first-time college student, a new law was passed in Fall 2007 that limits to six the number of courses you may drop (withdraw with a grade of "W") while enrolled at any Texas public institution of higher education. A first time in college student is a student not currently enrolled in high school and who has never taken a college or university course anywhere at any time.
