Withdrawal and Credit of Tuition and Fees
WITHDRAWAL AND CREDIT OF TUITION AND FEES
Students withdrawing from the university during the semester will be credited for all academic fees charged to them, in accordance with the following schedule.
Failure to attend or pay for courses does not release you from your financial responsibility to the University. Any student who desires or is compelled to withdraw from the University for any cause at any time during the academic year should secure an application for withdrawal from the Office of the Registrar, obtain the proper signatures and file with the Office of the Registrar. The effective date for withdrawals, with regard to refunds and grades, is the date the form is filed at the Office of the Registrar.
Early termination of the housing contract and meal plan will be assessed fees and a weekly proration amount charge. Housing canceled before July 1 will receive 100% credit. Housing canceled after July 1 will be charged a $500.00 breach of contract fee plus the weekly proration amount. Nine (9) days prior to the start of the semester, meal plan cancelations will be charged a 15% penalty fee plus the weekly proration amount. A weekly basis shall be defined as a complete week or any fraction thereof.
WITHDRAWAL REFUND POLICY FOR SUMMER AND WINTER SEMESTERS
Academic Affairs is committed to pay faculty even if the student withdraws and gets a refund beyond the first week of classes. Courses with an enrollment of less than seven are subject to cancellation by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
