A student who voluntarily withdraws from all courses during the first six weeks of a term receives a partial reduction of tuition (and charges for room and board, if applicable) according to the week of withdrawal as follows:

    first and second week:  80%

    third and fourth week:  60%

    fifth and sixth week:  40%

No reduction of tuition is granted after the sixth week.

The effective date of withdrawal is the date on which a written statement of withdrawal is received by the registrar. Student fees are not refundable.

No reductions are granted after the first week of the term to students who withdraw from one or more courses, but remain registered in others. No adjustment from full-time to part-time status is made after the first week of the term. If withdrawal from one or more courses amounts to complete withdrawal from a program, the provision for full withdrawal applies.

Failure to attend class is not equivalent to a withdrawal, and a student will not receive an adjustment of charges unless a formal withdrawal is filed with and approved by the registrar, regardless of whether the student actually attended classes or took examinations.
