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 percent

    Third and fourth week:  60 percent

    Fifth and sixth week:  40 percent

No reduction is granted after the sixth week of the term.

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 tenth day of classes to students who withdraw from one or more courses, but who remain registered in others. If withdrawal from one or more courses amounts to complete withdrawal from a program, the provision for full withdrawal applies. A student cannot completely withdraw from classes using the student telephone or web registration systems.

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.
