Refunds for Drops/Withdrawals
NOTE:
- Failure to submit a withdrawal form to the Registrar’s Office, for complete withdrawal from all classes, may result in fees being assessed.
- CAUTION: Dropping and adding classes may increase your cost. Dropped courses after the 100% refund periods are included in the total credits used for fee calculation. Course drops and adds after the 100% refund periods do not offset each other for cost purposes; therefore, your semester cost may increase.
