Withdrawing from your Programme
TU Dublin recognises that for a variety of reasons a student may need to withdraw from their programme.
If students are having second thoughts about their chosen career path it is very important to reflect on their motivations and the reasons for their initial choices.
We have a number of services available to assist you with your decision:
- Academic Staff
- Admissions Staff
- Career Development Centres
- Counselling
- Financial Aid/Student Fees
- Registrations
- Students Union
If a student is considering withdrawing they should contact their Course Co-Ordinator/Year Tutor to discuss withdrawing in the first instance.
If a student decides to Withdraw
- Complete a Withdrawal Form for their relevant Campus.
- Inform the funding agency/sponsor that they have withdrawn e.g. SUSI / Skillsnet.
