Refund Policy/Deadlines

Refunds are based on the first official day for the term and are not based on the first class day for individual courses.

Refund for Partial Withdrawal

During schedule adjustment when dropping and adding of individual courses are allowed, students may drop a course and receive a full refund for that course and its related fees only. There will be no refund to a student who partially withdraws after schedule adjustment has ended.

After the Schedule Adjustment Period Ends

Students completely withdrawing from the College must submit a complete withdrawal form to Enrollment Services or one of the off-campus sites; you cannot do a complete withdrawal on the web after the term has begun. For any questions you may call the cashier’s office at (205) 856-7779.
