Withdrawing from your programme of study
Dear University of Hertfordshire,
When students studying at the University desire to withdraw they must follow the following procedure:
1. Complete a request to withdraw form
2. Pass the completed form to your Programme Tutor for approval
3. Take the signed form to your nearest Ask Herts Hub
If studying on a foundation degree accredited by the University at West Herts college in 2019 would requirements 1 & 2 still apply ?
Yours faithfully,
Kurr Kidman
