Tuition Adjustment Policy

Tuition adjustments are based upon the total tuition due for all courses in any given semester. They are made on a percentage basis dependent on the date that the written withdrawal request is received in the registrar’s office.

Tuition adjustment schedules, with the appropriate dates and percentages, are published in the course schedules at the beginning of each semester.

Withdrawal Requests

Telephone messages, communications with faculty members or advisors, and nonattendance at class are not valid methods of withdrawing from classes and do not obligate the University to refund all or part of the tuition.

The fact that a student has not attended a class has no impact on tuition adjustment.

Non-Payment

Non-payment of tuition without proper notification to the registrar’s office of withdrawal from classes does not obligate the tuition adjustment.

Refund Schedule

Registrar’s Office enrollment calendar

*Resignation – up to the last day of classes.

Business Office Holds

A Business Office hold is placed on students if they have not paid their balance by the due date (30 days before the start of the term)

All students are subject to a monthly finance fee and are responsible for all fees associated with their account being assigned to a Collection Agency.
