I unenrolled from the Public Beta Program so I can update to macOS Mojave commercial version once available later this month. Will that get me rid of the Feedback Assistant app once installed or will I have to manually delete it? Thanks.
 
I believe the Feedback Assistant is there on every Mac, beta or otherwise (at least, I’m not running the beta on my main Mac, yet it has the Feedback Assistant). Unenrolling will likely hide it from the Dock and Launchpad, but it can still be found at /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications/Feedback Assistant.app. You can manually symlink it to the /Applications folder to put it back in Launchpad or drag it straight to your Dock if you want to still use it. But unenrolling should hide it from you. As it is part of macOS, it should not be deleted manually at all, if it even can be given SIP.

I had never seen it before until I enrolled on the program and installed the beta. I unenrolled today and it still shows on the dock. However it's not in the apps folder nor the launchpad. Well, I will wait until the commercial version is available and see what happens.

Check in: /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications/Feedback Assistant.app

If you want it to go away from the dock, right-click>remove... Don’t delete it from CoreServices.
