No consideration will be given to an application for a tuition refund unless the student has given notice to the Program Director at the time of withdrawal from a course. The “date of withdrawal” is the date on which the student actually notified the director. No fee paid, or any portion thereof, is returnable as a matter of right upon a student’s withdrawal from the University. Where illness, physical disability or extraordinary circumstances require a student to leave, he/she may file a written request stating the cause(s) of the withdrawal with the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies.
Refunds on tuition will be made according to the following schedule:
For regularly scheduled courses whether online, blended or on campus.
