Institutional Refund Policy - Withdrawal

Withdrawing from a course (within the publicized add/drop refund period)

Students who wish to withdraw from a registered course and receive a tuition/fees adjustment must initiate the necessary process with their academic advisor. In some cases, financial aid that has been awarded or disbursed to the student may require adjustment.

Withdrawing from a course (after the publicized deadline for a refund)

Students who wish to withdraw from a scheduled course after the publicized add/drop period must complete the necessary process with their academic advisor. In some cases, financial aid that has been awarded or disbursed to the student may require adjustment.

Withdrawal from College

Students who wish to withdraw from the College must contact their academic advisor or the Registrar's Office.

When students officially withdraw from the College or stop attending all of their classes during the early weeks of the semester, they may be eligible to be assessed only a percentage of costs assessed for the semester; they may also be eligible to retain a percentage of their federal, state and institutional financial aid to assist them with the payment of their costs due to the College.

Students must officially withdraw by using the appropriate forms and completing the withdrawal process. When students complete the official withdrawal process, the date on which the withdrawal form is received is used to determine the percentage of tuition and other account charges the College will assess. Students who wish to withdraw from the College should contact their advisor or the Registrar’s Office and complete the official withdrawal process.

When it is not possible for students to complete the official withdrawal process or they stop attending their classes without providing notice, the College will determine their withdrawal date once the College becomes aware that a student is no longer attending classes.

For students withdrawing during the Summer 2018 semester, Fall 2018 semester, and Spring 2019 semester, the College performs a prorated calculation of tuition and some fees. Book expenses may or may not be pro-rated, depending on the source of funds used to purchase the books.

Students who had added non-mandatory meal plan dollars to their account will receive a refund of the balance on their account. This applies only to non-mandatory meal plan dollars.

For students who fail to complete the official withdrawal process, Presentation College will determine the date of withdrawal once the College becomes aware that a student is no longer attending classes. If an amount owed is generated as a result of the calculation, the payment must be received or repayment arrangements must be made within 30 days of notification of the withdrawal date or the student's account will be considered delinquent.

The financial aid office performs a calculation of return of Title IV funds that is separate from the College refund calculation. That policy is in the financial aid office section of the College Catalog.
