Cancelled Classes

The University reserves the right to cancel classes due to insufficient enrollment, or to make reassignment of instructors due to extraordinary circumstances. A full refund of enrollment fees will be automatically authorized for students who are enrolled in a class which has been cancelled.

Unless you are going to use the refund for another course, you do not have to DROP the cancelled course yourself. If you do nothing, we will drop the cancelled course from your schedule at the end of the second week of classes (or the proportional equivalent for shorter classes) and authorize a full refund (as appropriate).

If you wish to use the refund (credit) from the cancelled class to pay the tuition for a replacement class you are ADDING, then you must process a DROP for the cancelled class at the same time you process an ADD for the replacement class. This must be done within the add/drop period for the term affected.

Any refunds owed to you will be used to offset any financial obligations you may have at the university. If your financial aid paid all or part of your costs, all or a portion of any refund goes back to that financial aid source. The Office of the Registrar is the office designated to process withdrawals submitted via the online registration system.

Refunds will be issued by the Accounts Receivable Office according to the Refund Policy on their website.
