Refunds
Before dropping or withdrawing from a class, it is a good idea to see an advisor or student services representative to discuss support services that may make it possible for you to remain in classes.

General: Refunds are calculated from the date and time the Student Records and Registration Office receives a completed schedule change or withdrawal form. Refunds will be processed by the Business Office, as soon as possible, beginning the third week of each term.

Regular Courses: Students withdrawing from a course more than two days in length, and who comply with regulations concerning withdrawals, may receive a refund of tuition and fees. Withdrawals made within the first 10% of instruction time will qualify for a full refund. Withdrawals made within the second 10% of instruction time will qualify for a 90% refund. Withdrawals made after the second week of class do not qualify for a refund.

Short Courses: If you withdraw from classes two days or less in length, you will receive a full refund if the action is initiated prior to a special preregistration deadline or if no such deadline, prior to the beginning of the class. No refunds will be issued after those times.

Course Cancellations
If a class is canceled by the College, there will be a 100% refund of the tuition and fees.

Special Provisions
Refunds to financial aid students in the first term of their first year at the College will be pro-rated in accordance with federal regulations. Details are available at the Financial Aid Office.

If you withdraw due to circumstances beyond your control such as job relocation or a medical emergency, you may file a petition for additional refund. The date of receipt of the petition, length of class attendance, and cost of course materials and services may be considered in denying or reducing the amount requested.
