SFS Refunds

Credits of tuition and fees will be based on the date courses are dropped according to the table below. The Technology Tuition Fee is non-refundable.

Room credits will be based on the week of official withdrawal from the residence hall through the 5th week of the semester. No room credit will be given for withdrawals after the 5th week of the semester.

Meal Plan credits are based on the week that the student meal ticket is surrendered to the housing office. The week runs from Monday through the following Sunday. Credit is given weekly, not daily, so no matter how many meals are eaten, the student will be charged for the full week.

Please note that the cost of tuition and fees is the same for 12-18 credits. Therefore, any decrease in credits between this range will not result in any changes to the charges on the student account.

Room and Board Refund Policy

A student who voluntarily withdraws from all courses is responsible for meal plan charges from the beginning of that enrollment term through the end of the week during which his or her official date of withdrawal falls. The student will be charged for the final week that he or she attended even if enrolled for only a portion of that week. Charges are calculated on a weekly basis from Monday through Sunday. Room charges are credited according to the week of the official withdrawal through the 5th week of the semester. If the withdrawal occurs after the 5th week, the student is responsible for room charges for the full semester.

Lost Check Policy

If a check has not been received by the student after ten business days, SFS will investigate the status of the check. If the check is still outstanding, payment will be stopped on the original check. The replacement check will be reissued in the next weekly batch of refund checks. Before a new check will be issued, the student must sign a release agreeing not to cash the original check.
