Voluntary Withdrawal
A student who plans to withdraw from SOFBI must submit to the Student Affairs Office a written request for withdrawal. The date that the request is received constitutes the official date of withdrawal, unless the student specifies another date. Students who withdraw from SOFBI without submitting a written request for withdrawal are considered active students and are responsible for all applicable financial and academic commitments. 

Involuntary Withdrawal
Students who fail to comply with SOFBI’s Code of Conduct, policies and procedures, or moral standards are subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Students who are dismissed from SOFBI for disciplinary actions will receive a grade of WD (withdrawal disciplinary) and a grade of zero for all courses for the semester. Students may appeal disciplinary decisions.  Students who are dismissed under this policy may apply for readmission after one year, in accordance with the Readmissions Policy.
