Refund Policy
 


Except for those institutions for which special refund policies have been approved by the Board of Regents, the policy for determining refunds to be made on institutional charges, and other mandatory fees at institutions of the System follows.

The refund amount for students withdrawing from the institution shall be based on a pro rata percentage determined by dividing the number of calendar days in the semester that the student completed by the total calendar days in the semester. The total calendar days in a semester includes weekends, but excludes scheduled breaks of five or more days and days that a student was on an approved leave of absence. The unearned portion shall be refunded up to the point in time that the amount earned equals 60%.

Students that withdraw from the institution when the calculated percentage of completion is greater than 60% are not entitled to a refund of any portion of institutional charges. A refund of all non-resident fees, matriculation fees, and other mandatory fees shall be made in the event of the death of a student at any time during the academic session.

After the published drop/add period of each semester, a student who drops below 12 credit hours or who registered for fewer than 12 semester hours and further reduces the load is not entitled to any refund of tuition.
