Nonattendance of classes or notification of the instructor or department does not constitute official withdrawal. Students who officially withdraw from the university before the eighth calendar day of the quarter or its summer session equivalent will receive a 100 percent refund of instructional and general fees paid. Students who withdraw during the eighth through the 16th calendar day of the quarter or its summer session equivalent will receive credit based on 70 percent of the fees assessed. Students who withdraw during the 70 percent refund period will be charged 30 percent of the total instructional and general fees assessed, regardless of how much they have paid at the time of withdrawal. For students on the installment program, the 30 percent charge will be subtracted from their payments to determine the amount of any refund.
Students receiving financial aid are subject to an additional refund calculation.
Refunds will not be granted after the 16th calendar day of the quarter. Students who withdraw while owing the university money will be considered to be indebted to the university for that amount. Therefore, all refunds will be applied to any indebtedness before being issued. All refunds will be issued within 30 days after the date of withdrawal from the university. Students who drop courses during a refund period will receive the refund according to the published refund schedule.
