Refunds, Advances and Holds
Students who withdraw from the University must first notify the Registrar in writing. Those who drop a class online or at the Registrar鈥檚 Office, or have any changes in enrollment status, are subject to the following Tuition Refund Policy:
Tuition and Fees
- There is a 100 percent refund on tuition and fees paid through the first day of classes.
- There is a 75 percent refund on tuition and fees paid through the Add/Drop date listed on the Academic Calendar.
- If the course does not run through the entire term, i.e. a one-day workshop or a one-week course, students may receive a 100 percent tuition refund for that course prior to the first class meeting. No refunds will be issued for courses dropped after the first class meeting.

Meals and Housing
Refunds for meals and housing will be determined on a pro-rated basis up until the Add/Drop date listed on the Academic Calendar.
Exceptions
Some fees are non-refundable and are not eligible for a refund even if the student is eligible for a 100 percent tuition refund. These include:

If your financial aid exceeds your billable tuition and fees, you may be eligible for a refund.

Students who have made insufficient payment on their student account at the beginning of the term run the risk of being administratively dropped from classes.
