REFUND POLICY
Students who withdraw or are withdrawn from class may be entitled to partial/full tuition refund, (usually fees are not refundable) and refunds will be disbursed in full (NOTE: Not attending classes does NOT constitute a formal withdrawal). Students will receive refunds for overpayments and/or withdrawal from classes or institution without any additional constituted administrative fees charged. Students may receive refunds on late registration fees, any private scholarships, late payment fees, deferred payment fees, or application fees within three (3) business days of the initial application filing. After three (3) business days, no refunds of fees will be issued, even if matriculation or registration does not occur. Students are accountable for charges for non-payment, default payment fees, and any charges for returned checks.
In a case of course cancellation, the institution will notify each student of the cancellation and recommend other coursework as a replacement. However, if this process is not satisfactorily implemented and the course change is not completed prior to the first day of a class, the institution will refund the full tuition for the cancelled course to the student, without the need to file a Tuition Refund Request. Otherwise, a dated and signed Tuition Refund Request form must be submitted to the Registrar's Office in order to begin the process of refunding tuition. The Office of Business Affairs (Student Accounts) may consider refunds on an individual basis where extenuating circumstances exist, such as student injury, prolonged illness or death, or other circumstances which prohibit completion of the course or program of study.
