If a student wishes to withdraw, completely or partially, from courses for which the student has registered, the student must complete, sign and submit, personally or by mail, the prescribed forms to the Registrar’s Office. Verbal withdrawals are not accepted. If a student officially withdraws from all courses before classes begin, all money paid to the University, except the nonrefundable fees, will be refunded within 30 days of said withdrawal. Full-time students who partially withdraw to less than 12 hours before classes begin will have their tuition adjusted to the hourly rate. After classes begin, the following schedule is effective based on the date of complete official withdrawal:

• During the first week of classes 80% of the tuition and refundable fees will be credited to the student’s account or refunded.
• During the second week of classes 50% of the tuition and refundable fees will be credited to the student’s account or refunded.
• During the third week of classes 30% of the tuition and refundable fees will be credited to the student’s account or refunded.
• Effective the first day of the fourth week of classes, no credit will be made for complete or partial withdrawal.

Cash refunds will be disbursed directly to the student only if all official charges to the student’s account are paid in full.

All applicable refunds will be disbursed to the student within thirty days after receiving a withdrawal request. In the event of a student’s death, all remaining charges on the student’s account will be cancelled.
