Please review the refund policy before you submit your leave of Absence or Withdrawal:
Refund Policy for Withdrawal/Leave of Absence
The University’s refund policies for students withdrawing or taking a leave of absence are described in the paragraphs below. The policy applicable to an individual student is determined by the particular circumstances of the student, including the timing of the withdrawal/leave of absence, whether or not the student is a participant in a federal or state financial assistance program, and whether or not the student will receive a refund under the Tuition Refund Plan. No refund is paid to any student who is suspended or required to withdraw or who leaves without first securing the written consent of the dean of student life.
For Students Not Receiving Federal or State Aid
Students who take a leave of absence or withdraw for any reason during the first three weeks of the semester and are not eligible to receive a refund under the Tuition Refund Plan are entitled to a prorated refund of certain Institutional Charges (see list of refundable institutional charges below). Prorated charges are based upon the date of actual withdrawal (as determined by the University in accordance with the withdrawal/ leave of absence procedure) according to the following schedule for the fall and spring semesters:

First Week of Semester

Summer semester refunds are available only during the first week of classes. Any refunds calculated under this formula will first be used to refund any institutional aid to the University, with any amount left over refunded to the student.
For Students Receiving Federal or State Aid
Students receiving Federal or State aid and who take a leave of absence or withdraw for any reason and are not eligible to receive a refund under the Tuition Refund Plan will receive a prorated refund as described above. In the event the University is required to return federal and/or state funds (see Refunds of Federal and State Aid below) in excess of the refund of charges as calculated above, then the student will receive a refund in institutional charges equivalent to the amount that is returned in federal and/or state funds. However, if total financial aid exceeds the amount of institutional charges, a refund will be made of a percentage of institutional charges less non-federal aid equal to the percentage of federal aid returned plus an amount equivalent to any state aid returned.
For Students Covered by the Tuition Refund Plan
Students who are enrolled in the Tuition Refund Plan and are eligible to receive a refund under the Tuition Refund Plan will receive a refund from the insurance company as described in the plan materials. The Tuition Refund Plan provides prorated refunds to students who withdraw or take a leave of absence due to physical, mental or nervous disabilities. All students are billed for the Tuition Refund Plan with their Fall semester bill. Students who decline this coverage must sign a waiver form and are not enrolled for the academic year. Please consult the plan brochure or the University Business Office for additional details. In the event this refund is less than the amount that would be provided under the refund policies above, the University will refund the difference. Any refunds calculated under this policy will first be used to refund federal and state aid and any institutional aid to the University, with any amount left over refunded to the student.
