Refund Policy
Tuition: Any student who officially withdraws from the University, for any reason, by the end of the second week of classes is entitled to a full tuition refund (except for the Tuition Deposit and the Student Activity Fee, which are non-refundable). See schedule below.
Students who are compelled to withdraw from all their courses at the University for reasons of illness, hospitalization, death in the family or other situations of similar gravity, and who withdraw from the University officially and with the approval of the financially responsible person, are granted tuition refunds according to the following schedule:
Tuition refund schedule:

100% |
|
During the third and fourth week of classes |
70% |
|
During the fifth and sixth week of classes |
40% |
|
After the sixth week of classes |
None |
Housing Costs: Paid-up Housing costs may be refunded (less the non-refundable $ 1,000 or $ 600 Housing Placement Fee) if notice is received in writing BEFORE the payment deadline corresponding to the term for which housing was requested. After that date, and before occupying the accommodations, housing costs may be refunded 50% (less the non-refundable Housing Placement Fee). After the housing unit has been occupied, no refund is possible.
The Housing Placement Fee is non-refundable in any case.
Withdrawal Policy
Students who must withdraw from a course during a semester for reasons of extended illness or family emergency may receive a refund according to the above refund scale, provided the withdrawal is officially approved by the Dean. A student may be advised to withdraw from a course for academic reasons. No refunds are made in that case.
Students are financially responsible for courses for which they are registered after the last day of the drop/add period.
No refunds will be made in the case of unofficial withdrawal or dismissal
from the University.
Good Financial Standing
Students will be considered to be in good financial standing at the end of each term when all accounts are cleared with the Business Manager, the Housing Office and the Library. Students not in good financial standing will not be issued grades or transcripts and may be refused re-enrollment at the University. |
