Refunds for Dropped Courses and Withdrawals 政策

政策

明尼苏达州 system Board 政策 5.12 Tuition and Fee Due Dates, Refunds, Withdrawals and Waivers outlines the requirements for tuition and fee due dates, refunds, withdrawals and waivers.

退课退款

Dropping a course refers to offici所有y canceling a registration before midnight on the fifth day of the term (drop/add period). Dropped courses usu所有y qualify for a refund and do not appear on the student’s transcript. Term courses starting after the drop/add period (late start class) may be dropped within one business day after the first meeting date of the class. A business day is typic所有y defined as occurring Monday through Friday.

Refund for Withdrawing from Classes

Withdrawing from a course refers to canceling a registration after the first five business days of the term or after one day past the first meeting day of a late start class. When a student withdraws from an individual class but is still attending other classes, no refund will be given for the withdrawn class. The financial obligation remains for the seat in the class that was reserved for the student during the registration process.

If a student registers for a class and never attends at least one class session, the financial obligation for the class remains and the student’s financial aid status must be recalculated. This could result in repayment of any financial aid to the college for any payments already received. Students are responsible for checking online to make sure their class has been dropped or marked as a withdrawal.

根据联邦法规, students who withdraw on or before the 60th percentage point-in-time of the term are required to return a portion of the aid received. Withdrawing before the 60th percentage point-in-time of the term means that a student has not earned percent of the student aid provided. Students who have received financial aid as a credit to their account or as a cash payment may end up owing the college for unpaid charges and/or the U.S. Department of Education for overpayment. The college will attempt to collect in either instance. This policy applies to Federal Pell Grants, 联邦SEOG, 联邦斯塔福德贷款, 和联邦母公司贷款.

If a student must withdraw from 所有 of their courses with the college after the drop/add period in a term, a student may be entitled to a refund of tuition and fees based on the following schedule:
