Refund Policy

The refund calculation is based on seven percent of the course's instruction time, a figure that is rounded to the nearest full day. For full-term courses, the 100% refund period concludes at the end of the day one calendar week after the start of the term (seven percent of the instruction time for the course).

*These dates are for courses that start and end on the prescribed dates. If your course deviates, review the chart, above, check your syllabus or speak with the Records Office about deadline dates. The Records Office can also help you with the procedures for withdrawaling from a course. 

For courses that encompass less than the full term, the 100% refund period is calculated using the following chart (allowing seven percent of the instruction time for the course). If you drop courses after this time, you will not receive a refund.

Qualifying for a Refund

To qualify for a refund, you need to officially drop a course(s) via WebAdvisor or complete and submit a Schedule Change/Registration form to the Records Office; in-person, by mail or by fax; with a signed written request within the required time period. Completed forms received after the refund period require an advisor or instructor signature.

If you fail to attend or stop attending a course, and do not formally drop the course in writing prior to the refund deadline, you continue to be financially responsible for all tuition and fees related to the course and receive final grades earned for that course. This refund policy applies to all students who have registered for courses.

Refunds are credited against the original form of payment. However, if you have any outstanding debt to the college, your refunds are first automatically applied to the payment of the debt.
