Payment of Accounts

After the first two weeks of the semester, full-time students who choose to drop classes and therefore become part-time will not receive a refund or reduction in charges or financial aid. It is possible that a student who withdraws during the refund period will still have an outstanding balance due the college.

Refunds

Students who receive Title IV funds and who withdraw before completing 60 percent of the semester will be required to return unearned Title IV funds in accordance with federal regulations. The same refund policy applies to institutional, state, and outside aid. The percentage of the semester that the student completes is determined by dividing the number of days the student attended by the number of days in the semester. Calendar days are used, but breaks of at least five calendar days are excluded. Tuition, fees, room and board charges will be pro-rated at the same rate. There will be no refunds given after the ninth week of the semester. Bookstore charges, fines, and other personal costs are not pro-rated and are non-refundable.
