Refunds

Definitions

  • Refund - a credit entered on a student's account to reduce the amount of charges
  • Drop - refers to cancellation of registration for individual classes
  • Withdrawal - refers to cancellation of registration to all classes for a specific term

Tuition Refund for Dropping a Class

There is no refund for an individual class that is dropped within a term.

Tuition Refund for Withdrawal

Students who withdraw from the University must file a withdrawal form with the Registrar's Office. Such formal notice will establish the withdrawal date. If a student withdraws without notification, Judson University will determine a withdrawal date. Refunds will be granted per the following schedule:

Withdrawal rates for the first term within the program:

  • Prior to the first class meeting of the term - 100%1
  • Prior to the second meeting of the term - 60%
  • Prior to the third meeting of the term - 40%
  • Prior to the fourth meeting of the term - 20%
  • Any subsequent withdrawals - $0

Withdrawal rates for the second and following terms within the program:

  • Prior to the first class meeting of the term - 100%1
  • Prior to the second meeting of the term - 80%
  • Prior to the third meeting of the term - 60%
  • Prior to the fourth meeting of the term - 30%
  • Any subsequent withdrawals - $0

A term consists of multiple courses with the same registration date. Tuition refunds will be calculated on the term rate only; there will be no per course or hourly rate refund.

The 100% refund for a term that has not started is conditional upon all distributed educational resources for that term being returned unused to Judson University.
