State University Refund Policies
The Advance Admission Deposit of $50 is refundable until April 30 (November 1 for spring enrollment) or 30 days after the day of acceptance, whichever is later. After this it may not be refunded except in cases of withdrawal for reasons beyond the control of the student and with approval of the University President or his/her designee.
The Advance Room Deposit of $50 is refundable until July 1 (December 1 for spring enrollment). Refunds may not be made after this date except in cases of withdrawal for reasons beyond the control of the student and with approval of the University President or his/her designee.
Tuition . A student withdrawing from the university or individual courses during the fall or spring semester is eligible for the following tuition refunds:
100 percent for withdrawal during the first week of classes
70 percent for withdrawal during the second week of classes
50 percent for withdrawal during the third week of classes
30 percent for withdrawal during the fourth week of classes
0 percent for withdrawal beyond the fourth week of classes
A full refund of tuition may be granted if a student must withdraw for reasons beyond his/her control with the approval of the University President or his/her designee.
Please note that Thanksgiving and Spring Break do not count as a week during the semester for Title IV and calculation purposes. As a rule, students should always check with the Student Accounts Office and the Financial Aid Office when considering a withdrawal from courses or the university.
The College Fee is not refundable after registration.
Refunds for the Student Services and Programs Charge are granted based on the week of withdrawal following the same schedule listed above for tuition.
Residence Hall Room Rental. Once a student has registered for and occupied a room in a university-operated residence, no refund may be made except in cases of withdrawal beyond the control of the student and with approval of the University President or his/her designee. Rooms are contracted for the entire academic year and cannot be canceled during this period as long as the student is registered. There is a fee of $350 for approved termination of the housing license. In the case of a withdrawal from the institution, Residence Life has their own pro-ration schedule of housing charges.
Food Service is refundable on a pro-rated basis, less a small service charge, only upon withdrawal from the university.
