policy. It is not intended to replace official information

Refunds
and Cancellations of Charges
In order to be eligible for a refund or cancellation of
charges, a properly signed schedule revision request card
dropping all courses for which the student is registered
must be filed with the Graduate Records Office if after
the tenth day of the semester. (See “Dropping
all Courses; Withdrawal from the Program” below).
The
University grants a full refund of fees to any student dismissed
for academic deficiency or other cause, provided that the
dismissal takes place prior to the start of classes. In
certain other instances, including illness, full refunds
or cancellations of charges may be made at the discretion
of the Dean of the Graduate School, provided that the interruption
or termination of the student's program takes place prior
to the start of classes. A student inducted into military
service will receive a prorated refund or cancellation of
charges based on his or her date of separation. The student
in this situation must furnish the Office of the University
Bursar with a copy of the orders to active duty, showing
this to be the reason for leaving the University.
Refunds
or cancellations of charges are available on the following
schedule for students whose programs are interrupted or
terminated prior to or during a regular academic semester.
When notice is received prior to the first day of classes
of a semester, full refund (less nonrefundable fees) will
be made if the fees have been paid in full. Thereafter,
refunds or cancellations of refundable charges will be made
according to the following schedule:
a)

Dropping All Courses; Withdrawal from the Program
The general policies and procedures regarding dropping a
course (above) apply to dropping all courses, whether the
student wishes to remain active in the graduate degree program
or to withdraw permanently from it. Permission' from the
Graduate School is needed for the student either to remain
active in the program or to leave in good standing. If a
student wishes to remain active and registered after dropping
all courses, an appropriate zero-credit Continuing Registration
course must be added to his or her enrollment record. The
determination of active status is subject to the provisions
contained in the "Continuous Registration" section.
If a refund is due to a student (See "Refunds and Cancellations
of Charges"), the schedule revision-request card must
be signed by the appropriate Graduate School officer, regardless
of the week of the semester. This signature is required
so that the refund process may be initiated. No refund
is possible unless all course work for credit is dropped.
