Withdrawal and Refunds Policies

This page is an overview of the refunds policy for withdrawing undergraduate students.

Consult the Academic Catalog (pages 13-15) for the official current policies regarding Withdrawals and Refunds for all other students.

Tuition, Room and Board Adjustments (Undergraduate)

Undergraduate students who withdraw before a semester begins or on the first day of classes will be given a full refund of all charges less the enrollment deposit.  If the withdrawal is prior to May 1, the enrollment deposit will also be refunded.

The withdrawal date is established by the date of receipt by the Associate Provost of written notice of intent to withdraw. For purposes of calculating refunds, a school week is defined as beginning on Monday and ending on the following Sunday.

All refund calculations take into account any charges that are unpaid at the time of withdrawal. The student activities fee, technology fee, and any other miscellaneous fees are not included in the refund policy calculations. There is a $100 processing fee charged for all students who withdraw during the first four weeks of a semester.

Refunds for students withdrawing from programs with outside institutions will be calculated based on the other institutions’ guidelines. Refund requests must be made in writing to the College’s Business Office.

If withdrawal occurs, tuition, room and board are refunded based on the school week of the semester within which the student withdraws. The schedule of reductions for tuition and room and board follows. There will be no exceptions to this policy.

  • Within the first or second week of the semester: 90% reduction of the semester’s tuition, room, and board
  • Within the third or fourth week of the semester: 50% reduction of the semester’s tuition, room, and board
  • Within the fifth to seventh week of the semester: 25% reduction of the semester’s tuition, room, and board
  • After the seventh week of the semester: no reduction of fees
