Official Drop/Withdrawal and Tuition Refund Policy 

Fees are non-refundable after the first week of the semester. To receive a 100 percent refund of tuition and fees, the official Change of Registration Form or the official Withdrawal and Leave of Absence Form requesting withdrawal or leave of absence must be submitted to the Registrar on or before the last day of the first week of the semester. It is the student's responsibility to be aware of the tuition refund policy. 

  

When the student drops coursework, withdraws or takes a leave of absence after the semester begins. Clarkson College tuition refunds may be credited to the student's account after the official Change of Registration form or official Withdrawal and Leave of Absence Form is submitted to the Registrar. After the appropriate form has been submitted, the refund schedule will be applied. Refund schedules are also available in the Student Financial Services Department and the Office of Enrollment Services. It is the student's responsibility to be aware of the tuition refund policy. 

  

Only the Student Accounts Manager can approve exceptions to the tuition and fee refund schedule. Deans, directors, faculty members and staff are not authorized to make exceptions. Refunds are calculated based on the date the completed paperwork is received by the Registrar. 

  

Note: It is strongly recommended that students consult with a Clarkson College Student Financial Services representative prior to dropping any classes. Dropping credit hours may create serious financial problems. A student may be required to repay a portion of federal financial aid if he or she withdraws from classes.
