Withdrawal from the College

**Before withdrawing from the College, ask a Financial Aid Officer how it will alter your financial aid.

When a student officially withdraws from the College before completing the period of enrollment for which they were charged, they may be entitled to receive a partial credit of tuition and/or board, if applicable. Board will only be credited if the student officially and voluntarily withdraws from the College and residence hall.

A withdrawal is considered official only after the completed withdrawal form has been processed.

Students will be advised to meet with the Office of Retention and Advising prior to withdrawing and all withdrawal forms must be completed through the Registrar's Office.  Official withdrawal forms must be retained in the student's permanent file located in the Registrar's Office.  Non-attendance does not constitute an official withdrawal.

Students who are enrolled in an extended session(s) and who do not continue their enrollment in an extended session will not be refunded tuition for the unattempted credits.

Students who drop below twelve (12) credits after the first week of the semester will not have their tuition re-calculated based on part-time status.
