TUITION REFUND SCHEDULE

FOR THE FALL OR SPRING SEMESTER

FOR THE SUMMER SEMESTER

Note: Refunds for students who have federal student loans and who withdraw are governed by the refund procedures established by the Department of Education for return of student loan proceeds to the lender. The regulations require a student to “earn” federal financial aid on a daily basis as the term progresses. For example, if there were 100 days in the semester, a student withdrawing on the 30th day will have earned 30 percent of their federal aid. As of the 60% point in a given semester, the student is considered to have earned 100% of the federal loans borrowed for that term. Withdrawal before then requires the Law Center to return loan funds to the lender even though, based on the tuition refund schedule shown above, this may result in the student owing a balance to the Law Center. Before officially withdrawing, consult the Financial Aid or Registrar’s Offices for more information on the financial implications of your decision. The Law Center tuition refund policy is subject to change at any time due to federal regulatory and/or school policy revisions or updates.
