UNM Policy

Under faculty regulations, students who formally withdraw from the University before the end of the 12th week of the semester due to military obligations are entitled to a grade of WP in each course in which they are enrolled. Military orders or evidence of enlistment must be made available to the Dean of Students Office. A student who withdraws due to military obligations after completing 12 weeks of instruction, will receive full credit for each course in which they are enrolled provided the instructor certifies a grade of C or better for the course at the date of formal withdrawal. They will receive a grade of WP if the instructor certifies a grade of less than C. Students must opt for either a tuition refund or for a grade assignment after the 12th week. A final semester senior who has satisfactorily completed at least half of the work in courses for which they are enrolled that semester, provided these would complete their degree requirements, may be certified for graduation by the faculty of their college.
