Refund Policy

The refund calculation is based on 7 percent of the instruction time for the course, a figure that is rounded to the nearest full day. For full-term courses, the 100 percent refund period concludes at the end of the day one calendar week after the start of the term (7 percent of the instruction time for the course). For full term 2010/FA courses, these are the deadline dates:

For courses that encompass less than the full term, the 100 percent refund period is calculated per the following chart (allowing 7 percent of the instruction time for the course). If you drop classes after this time frame, you will not receive a refund.

Visit the Records Office  in A112 for assistance in confirming deadline dates and procedures for withdrawing from a course.

To qualify for a refund, officially drop a course(s) by submitting an Add-Drop/Withdrawal Form to the Records Office or mail or fax a signed written request to the Records Office within the time period cited above.

Note that a completed form after the refund period requires an advisor or the instructor signature(s). If you fail to attend a course or stop attending a course, and do not formally drop the course in writing, you continue to be financially responsible for all tuition and fees related to the course(s) and receive final grades of "F" for those courses. This refund policy applies to all students who have registered for courses.

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

For the fall term, the following courses follow a non-standard refund schedule.
