Tuition and Fee Refund Policy

    1.  If a student withdraws before the first day of classes of the fall or winter term, the full amount of the Comprehensive Tuition Fee then paid by or for the account of the student from private resources (as opposed to payments from federal or state or University financial aid programs, including the Guaranteed Student Loan program), will be refunded, less the advance deposit required of each new applicant as a freshman or undergraduate academic transfer ($500), or of each Law School new applicant or academic transfer (up to $750).

    2.  If a student withdraws during the first week of classes of the fall or winter term and gives written notice of withdrawal, the student's account will be credited with 75% of the Comprehensive Tuition Fee.  If a student withdraws during the second or third week of classes of the fall or winter term and givers written notice of withdrawal, the student's account will be credited with 50% of the Comprehensive Tuition Fee.  If a student withdraws during the fourth or fifth week of classes of the fall or winter term and gives written notice of withdrawal, the student's account will be credited with 25% of the Comprehensive Tuition Fee.  If no financial aid is involved (including Guaranteed Student Loans), the amount of the credit will be refunded, taking into account amounts then paid.  If federal or state financial aid is involved, preference will be given to the regulations of the funding agency.  Contact the Treasurer in such cases to determine the amount, if any, of refund.

    3.  If a student withdraws after five weeks of classes in the fall or winter term, either voluntarily or involuntarily, the Comprehensive Tuition Fee is NOT REFUNDABLE.
