Part-Time Student Refund Policies

Part-time students who wish to receive course refunds must formally withdraw from the course(s). It is the student's responsibility to complete the Add/Drop form and to submit it to the Registrar's Office for processing. The amount of the refund is based on the date the student withdraws, not whether the student attended class or on how many classes the student attended. The student fee is not refundable. 

If you made a credit card payment online, your refund will be credited back to the credit card used when making the payment. If you wish to have your refund deposited directly into your checking or savings account electronically, CLICK HERE and complete your account profile. To learn more about e-Refunds visit the eBill information Website. 

NOTE: ALL REFUNDS IN THE FORM OF A CHECK ARE MAILED TO THE STUDENT'S PERMANENT MAILING ADDRESS ON FILE WITH THE REGISTRAR'S OFFICE.

If you wish to change your address, please complete a Change of Student Info form with the Registrar's Office.
