Refunds for Reductions in Hours

If you drop one or more classes prior to the add/drop date, you may receive a reduction of your tuition and fees.

Tuition & Fees Refund due to Reduction in Hours

• If you drop one or more classes prior to the add/drop date, you are entitled to a reduction of tuition and fees.
• The deadline to drop a course and receive a tuition reduction (while still remaining registered in other courses) is the last day of the add/drop period for the term.
  • Refer to the Academic Calendar for the “last day to add/drop with no grade” for each term.
• Dropping classes may affect your financial aid.
• After the add/drop period has ended, there will be NO tuition refunds for a partial course-load withdrawal.

Dropping or Withdrawing from All Classes

• Dropping all courses that you are registered for after the start of the semester requires official withdrawal from the University.
• View this page for more info about refunds for a full withdrawal.

Appeal for Tuition, Housing & Dining Refund

• If you have extenuating circumstances that warrant consideration of a refund, you may submit an Appeal for a Tuition, Housing and Dining Refund to request a reduction in charges.
• The appeal must be substantiated by medical reasons, unexpected employment changes, death in the immediate family, or University error, and will be reviewed by the University Appeals Committee.
• Tuition refunds will not be considered if you have received any grade other than a “W” – Withdrawal or “WE” – Withdrawal for Extenuating Circumstances.
