Tuition Refund Policy

All refunds to a student withdrawing from the College are based on the date on which the student, parent or guardian notified the Dean of Students of withdrawal.  The College policy on the refund of payments to students who withdraw voluntarily or due to illness, or who are dismissed during any semester, is stated below.  No other refunds are possible.

Students receving financial aid from the College who withdraw during a semester will have their aid reevaluated, possibly necessitating repayment of a portion of aid received.  Repayment of aid depends on the type of aid received, government regulations, and the period of attendance.
