Complete Withdrawal From Brock

We are so sorry to see you go!

Important Information for Withdrawing from Brock University

Financial Account Reminder

  • An academic course withdrawal does not automatically equate to a financial refund of course tuition. Please see the Student Accounts and Financial Aid website for more information about withdrawals and refunds.
  • It is imperative that you continue to monitor your student financial history page to ensure all charges are accurate and up-to-date.
  • Miscellaneous fees such as Library fees, residence damage charges, missed health appointment fees, etc., may be charged to your account months after your actual departure date.
  • It is important that you continue to monitor your student financial history through your my.brocku.ca student portal, as you are still responsible for these fees.
  • If you have a credit on your account once all changes are complete, please complete the online “Request a Refund” form at brocku.ca/safa/contact-us/request-a-refund 
  • All refunds are completed via INTERAC e-transfer through your Brock student email account

You must drop/withdraw from your courses in order to formally withdraw from Brock. Please remember that withdrawals may be subject to either an academic or financial penalty depending on the date you withdraw.

How to drop/withdraw:

  3. If the last day to withdraw from a course without academic penalty has passed (https://brocku.ca/important-dates/#withdrawal), please review the backdated withdrawal procedure to request a retroactive course withdrawal (eligibility criteria must be met).
