Refund and Rebate
Withdrawal and Leave of Absence, Including Tuition Rebate and Refund.
A Leave of Absence must be requested in writing and is subject to approval by the assistant dean for student affairs. A Request for Withdrawal must also be in writing and presented first to the specialty director and then to the assistant dean for student affairs. For both leave and withdrawal, the general rules of the University and other policies of the School are applicable.
Students who withdraw from the School for any reason during the first 60 percent of the term will receive a pro rata rebate of tuition. No adjustment is made after 60 percent of the term has expired. In 2007-2008, no portion of tuition will be rebated in the fall term after November 7, 2007. In the spring term, that date is April 3, 2008. For summer term, the 60 percent date is June 28, 2008.
The death of a student will cancel charges for tuition as of the date of death, and the tuition will be adjusted on a pro rata basis.
A student who withdraws from the School of Nursing for any reason during the first 60 percent of the term will be subject to the pro rata portion of Title IV funds earned at the time of withdrawal. A student who withdraws after the 60 percent point has earned 100 percent of the Title IV funds. In order to comply with federal regulations, the School must return to the lender any unearned funds. In 2007-2008, the last days for refunding federal student aid are the same as noted above for tuition. Financial aid will be refunded in the order prescribed by federal regulations, namely, Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan, Subsidized Federal Stafford Loan, Federal Perkins Loans; Federal Graduate Plus Loans; Nursing Student Loans; any other federal, state, private, or institutional scholarships and loans. Any remaining balance will be refunded to the student.
For purposes of determining the refund of all other sources of aid (state, private, or institutional scholarships and loans) a student who withdraws from the School of Nursing for any reason during the first 60 percent of the term will be subject to a pro rata schedule which will be used to determine the amount of funds a student has earned at the time of withdrawal. A student who withdraws after the 60 percent point has earned 100 percent of the funds. In 2007-2008, the last days for refunding institutional student aid funds are the same as noted above for tuition.
All recipients of federal student loans who leave the School are required to complete an exit interview. Graduating students are required to complete the process before participating in Commencement. Student Financial Services will provide notification and guidance to students required to complete this process.
