Reserves Called to Active Duty Policy

|
Indiana University realizes students who are members of the Indiana military reserves may be called to active duty.
The following policy is provided in order to minimize disruptions or inconveniences for students fulfilling their
military responsibilities.
Any student called to active duty may withdraw from all courses and receive a 100% refund of tuition and fees.
Alternatively, with the permission of the instructor(s), a student may receive an incomplete or a final grade in the
courses taken. Either alternative may occur anytime during the semester through the end of final examinations. If the
withdrawal is processed after the first week of classes, the grade of W will be assigned initially. Students receiving
financial aid will be subject to the refund policies as provided for by the agencies sponsoring the aid. The request to
withdraw needs to be made within one week of being called to active duty and may be made by either the student or other
responsible party who has the student's military information.
Students who wish to withdraw from courses as a result of being called to active duty must provide a copy of their orders to Veterans Support Services along with a signed note asking to be withdrawn. That office provides a one-point-of-contact process for withdrawals so students won’t need to visit various offices. Students or other responsible parties may wish to call that office first to begin the withdrawal process, with the understanding that a copy of the orders would need to be forthcoming. For any questions about this process or to request a withdrawal from all classes due to military orders, contact:
