Early in the semester:
If you are a main campus student, you need to contact either Trish Ingram at 325-4308 or Debbie Blevins at 325-1084. They will need a copy of your orders as soon as possible. You can fax them to 325-7492. They will withdraw you from your classes and notify the Bursar and Financial Aid.

You can fax them to 325-7273. They will withdraw you from your classes and notify the Bursar and Financial Aid.
Mid to late semester:
If time allows, visit with each of your instructors to discuss your options.
The faculty and staff have been instructed by the Provost office to assist you in the disposition of your coursework. This may include early completion of courses, withdrawal or receipt of grades of Incomplete. Whatever your decision, you must then notify Trish Ingram so she can counsel you on how it will impact your Montgomery GI Bill.
When you know the semester in which you will return:
We will do everything we can to get you back in classes as seamlessly as possible. You may go online to https://enroll.ou.edu at the appropriate time and enroll.
