Undergraduate

  1. Fees are not refundable.
  2. Tuition, Room and Board are fully or partially refundable only when a student officially withdraws from the college. Refunds for withdrawal will be prorated based on the number of days the student was in attendance at the college.
  3. NO REFUNDS will be processed for withdrawal once 60% of the semester (approximately 9 weeks) has been completed.

Tuition refunds are processed by the Bursar’s and Financial Aid Offices. A withdrawing student will be charged a $350 Administrative Fee. A resident student who breaks his/her Housing Contract after the beginning of the academic year by moving off campus with or without approval will be charged a $600 Housing Contract Cancellation fee. If a student breaks the Contract prior to the beginning of the Fall Semester, the student will lose the $200 deposit paid before room selection.
