Students who withdraw after having received Title IV financial assistance might have to repay a portion of that assistance. If a student’s award package includes any federal funds and the withdrawal occurs in the first 60 percent of the payment period, federal regulations require that a portion of the student’s federal aid be returned to the aid programs. The portion of the aid to be returned is determined by a refund calculation based on the number of days remaining in the period.
Student tuition and/or room and board refunds will be processed by Student Financial Services upon receipt of a completed leave of absence or withdrawal form.
No tuition or room and board refunds or credits are made when withdrawal of a student is required by the College authorities from classes or on-campus housing or when a student withdraws from an individual course.
