Withdrawal Policy

If it becomes necessary for a student to withdraw or take a leave of absense from the University, he/she is expected to complete an official withdrawal or leave of absence form. This form is available from the Office of Student Affairs. Financial liability will be based upon the date that the form is received by the Dean of Students.

Notice: Students are responsible for notifying the University if they plan to withdraw. Non-attendance does not constitute official withdrawal.

Before making a decision to withdraw or take a leave, students should be aware of the financial implications. In some cases, the student could be ineligible for financial aid that was scheduled to be received. Charges that were to be covered by financial aid, would become the student's responsibility.

For more information on determining financial liability, please contact the Financial Aid Office.

Remember to check your account summary for your remaining tuition balance and adjustments to your financial aid award, if any, after your leave of absence or withdrawal form has been processed.

Residence Refund Policy

Room and Board charges are not subject to the University Refund Policy. Once a student signs the housing license agreement, the student is responsible for paying all room and board charges for the term of the housing license agreement. Students should review the Housing License Agreement for exceptions to this policy.
