This is referred to as Academic Withdrawal. Academic Withdrawals will create no financial change to winter term fees and will result in a grade of Withdrawn (WDN) appearing on your official transcript. WDN is a permanent notation that appears on your official transcript signifying no academic credit. WDN will not impact your CGPA. The Academic Withdrawal deadline for full winter, late winter, and fall/winter courses is Wednesday, March 15, 2023. After this date, you will no longer be able to drop the course. For all academic deadlines, review the academic year calendar. Grades Available in Carleton Mobile ![]() You can now see your grades in the new Carleton Mobile app!
