Permanent Withdrawals

Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) undergraduate students may wish to voluntarily and permanently withdraw from their program studies due to financial, health, personal, academic or other reasons.

Students are academically and financially responsible for all course enrolments and charges from that time until the university has received notification of Permanent Program Withdrawal (prior to the appropriate deadline for the academic term).

The final deadline date to submit a Permanent Withdrawal Request is the last day to withdraw from a program (no refund). These deadline dates are confirmed on the Drop a Course page.

Permanent withdrawal requests are final once processed. If a student wishes to re-enter the program at a later time, an application for re-admission must be submitted to Undergraduate Admissions. Re-admission is not guaranteed.
