Home  Tuition and Fees Refunds Refund for Withdrawal
Refund for Withdrawal
Once the semester begins, students who wish to drop all course work for which they are registered must withdraw from the university. Do not use MyPACK Portal.
(See Withdrawal from the University)
After the close of the official drop period (Census), withdrawal may only be granted for exceptional circumstances such as documented medical or hardship situations.
Undergraduate and graduate degree students should contact the Counseling Center to initiate an official withdrawal. Dean's approval and even parental approval in certain cases may be required. Lifelong Education (non-degree) students should contact Registration and Records to initiate withdrawal.
Financial Aid Recipients should talk to a Financial Aid Counselor before withdrawing. Students receiving funds awarded by the Office of Scholarships & Financial Aid should be aware of policies regarding withdrawal from the University.
The Federal Higher Education Act requires the University to calculate a Return of Federal Student Aid Funds for students who withdraw (officially or unofficially) from all classes on or before the 60 percent attendance point in the semester. Using a pro-rata schedule, the percentage of the semester attended is used to calculate the amount of the student's earned versus unearned Federal student aid funds. The unearned portion of Federal student aid funds will be returned to the appropriate aid program(s). Students withdrawing from classes are responsible for payment of any balance due after the required return of Federal student aid funds.
Tuition and fee refunds for Official Withdrawals are prorated based on the schedule below and no refunds are made for official withdrawals after 50% of the enrollment period. Students who completely withdraw from the University by these dates are due a refund/reduction as follows:

Refunds will not be processed until after the official drop period (Census) and will be deposited to the student's bank account or mailed to the student's university home/mailing address.
Students have the right to file a refund application (an appeal) in the Student Accounts Section of the University Cashier's Office. The appeal must be substantiated by medical reasons, unexpected employment changes, death in the immediate family, or University error and will be reviewed by the University Fee Appeals Committee. The appeal can not be processed if you have received academic credit for the course.
