The official date of withdrawal for purposes of computing any refund will be determined by the office of Academic Advisement or the Division of Graduate Studies.
Students who withdraw prior to the first day of the semester will be given a full refund. After the beginning of the semester, the percentage (%) of charges refunded for tuition, room & board are calculated as follows:
80% if withdrawal is within the first week of classes,
60% if withdrawal is within the 2nd week of classes,
40% if withdrawal is within the 3rd week of classes,
20% if withdrawal is within the 4th week of classes,
0% after the 4th week of classes
Refunds of federal financial aid will be calculated according to the Federal Title IV Refund policy. A percentage of a student's financial aid is earned for each day the student was enrolled as dertermined by the Offices of Academic Advisement or Graduate Studies. Unearned aid must be returned in the following order*.
*This order may be changed due to the inception of new grant/loan programs beginning for 2006-2007.
