WITHDRAWAL POLICY
A student who wants to initiate leave of absence or
withdrawal must obtain the Notification of Student Leave of
Absence/Withdrawal form in the Learning and Advising Center.
A student is considered in attendance until this formal
notification is completed and returned to the Registrar and
the student has dropped their classes. Tuition charges for
students who withdraw from the University will be refunded
on the following basis:
Undergraduate Day and All Online Courses:
(Online classes follow the undergraduate day refund policy regardless
of log-in status)
Before classes start 100%
First week of class 80%
Second week of class 60%
Third week of class 40%
Beginning of fourth week of class 0%
Evening, Accelerated, Graduate and All Summer Courses:
Prior to the first class meeting 100%
Prior to second class meeting 80%
Prior to third class meeting 60%
Prior to fourth class meeting 40%

The University uses federal regulations to determine the refund of federal financial aid funds to the federal government. A copy of this federal refund calculation is available on the University's Financial Aid website.
Any student who withdraws or changes credit hours or room and board status after the semester begins is obligated for a full semester’s room charge. Board will be charged to the official date of withdrawal, plus an additional charge of 25 percent of the unused portion.
The effective date for calculating refunds will be the effective
date indicated on the Notification of Student Leave of Absence/
Withdrawal form. Failure to complete this withdrawal form results
in an unofficial withdrawal. Refunds, transcripts and recommendations
will be withheld by the University until this official form is
received.
Students dismissed from the University or from the residence hall
after the semester begins are obligated for a full semester's room
charge. Board will be charged to the official date of dismissal,
plus an additional charge of 25 percent of the unused portion.
Insurance claims for medical withdrawals will be processed
through the Dewar’s tuition insurance policy [click here for brochure].
Claim forms are available in the Student Accounts Office. If the student waived this coverage, no refund is available for a medical withdrawal.
