Retroactive Resignation
In rare circumstances, students may be granted retroactive resignation from courses taken in a previous semester. However, such resignation must be for all courses taken in that semester and must be due to extraordinary circumstances, substantiated by appropriate documentation.
Please note the following important information regarding retroactive resignation:
- Retroactive resignation will be allowed only twice in a graduate student's academic career at John Jay College.
- The deadline to submit a Retroactive Resignation Application is no later than 7 years following the semester from which the student would like to resign.
- Retroactive resignation does not provide the basis for requesting a refund. All refunds of tuition and fees are made in accordance with the fee schedule in the Bulletin. If a retroactive resignation is approved, the student may be required to return some or all financial aid received for that semester.
- Applications for retroactive resignation may be obtained at the Jay Stop website: http://jstop.jjay.cuny.edu.
- All resignations are subject to final authorization by the Registrar.
