* Due to the unique nature of summer quarter, summer rates vary from those listed above. Rates for summer quarter 2009 have not yet been set.

Federal Refund Requirements
A Federal Title IV Program refund is required when a student completely withdraws from school within the 60% point of enrollment for any quarter. After that point, no refund is required.

Week of the Quarter % Refund for Course Withdrawals 2 % Refund for Complete Withdrawals3
1st 100%100%
2nd 90% 90%
3rd 50% 80%
4th 50% 70%
5th 25% 60%
6th 25% 50%
7th through 8th 0 0

Refunds related to course and full withdrawal from summer quarter are calculated based on the percentage of program completed.

There may be additional fees.
1 The new student matriculation fee includes costs for orientation, University publications (Catalog, Student Handbook, Community Resources Guide) plus student ID cards, unofficial transcripts, and copies of official transcripts sent to licensing boards. Once orientation begins, this fee is nonrefundable.
2 All courses (including weekend intensive courses) follow this refund schedule. Courses may not be dropped after the course has ended (example: weekend intensive courses). Courses may only be added in the first week of the quarter (with the exception of weekend intensive courses). In order to manage patient scheduling, the University strongly discourages students from dropping clinic shifts. Students who drop a clinic shift before the quarter may be assessed a financial penalty. Once the quarter has begun, there is no refund for shift withdrawals (except in the case of family or medical emergencies). Please see the clinic registration staff, in the Registrar’s office, for more information regarding clinic shift changes.
3 Calculated by hand.
