Fee Adjustment Options

Students who receive approval to drop a course during the second through tenth week of classes are liable for tuition and fees.  However, the student may apply for a Fee Adjustment through the Registrar’s Office if the student has any of the following exceptional circumstances.  The Fee Adjustment form may be submitted after the petition to drop is approved and processed.   The Registrar will determine if a fee/tuition refund is applicable.

1. Illness of the student of such severity or duration to preclude completion of the course(s) as confirmed in writing by a physician (M.D.).

1. Death of the student or death in the immediate family (parent, spouse, child or sibling) as confirmed by documentation (death certificate, obituary) indicating the student’s relationship to the deceased.

1. Involuntary call to active military duty as confirmed by military orders.

1. A situation in which the University is in error as confirmed by an appropriate University official.

1. Other documented exceptional circumstances beyond the control of the student which precluded completion of the course(s) accompanied by explanatory letter and supporting documentation.
