College of Humanities
Petition and/or Appeal Request

You must be a declared major or pre-major in the College of Humanities in order to submit petitions for Exception to Policy to this college. All undecided and non-degree seeking students go through the Academic Advising Center.

The University has provided means for students to be granted exceptions to University policy. This allows students the chance to petition certain policies for non-academic reasons such as illness, military leave, family emergencies, etc.

Exceptions to policy include withdrawals from a course after the withdrawal deadline for the same term, retroactive withdrawals, retroactive registrations, section/cross-listed course changes, late registration requests, changes in CR/NC status, retroactive changes in credit hours, etc. This must always be done through the Dean's Office of the college of the student's major. View college dean contacts list.

For questions about this process, please contact Natalie Montoya (natalie.montoya@utah.edu).
