Students can add or drop a course during the published registration period for their academic program. (See Academic Calendar for dates.)
Students may drop a course with no tuition penalty until the add/drop deadline. After the add/drop deadline there will be no refund of tuition for traditional undergraduate students who withdraw from a course but remain enrolled at the University. If a traditional undergraduate student withdraws from the University, then the refund schedule below applies. Graduate and online undergraduate students are eligible for tuition refunds on a course-by-course basis as noted below.
PLEASE NOTE: The pro-rated refund percentages after the add/drop deadline apply to graduate and online undergraduate students who withdraw from a course. They also apply to traditional undergraduates who withdraw from the University. They do NOT apply to traditional undergraduates who withdraw from a course after the add/drop deadline.
