Medical Emergency Withdrawal

Partial tuition refunds may be granted through the medical withdrawal process.  Tuition appeals related to medical or emergency withdrawal require documentation.  

1. The student must withdraw from the university using the online withdrawal form. Check “Medical” as reason for withdrawal.

2. The Dean of Students will contact students who withdraw for medical reasons.  Further documentation will be requested at that time.   

3. The Dean of Students Office will determine if the withdrawal can be supported for a tuition appeal.   

4. If the withdrawal is supported, the Medical Emergency Appeals Committee will use the student's last day of attendance to determine the refund percentage for tuition and fees.
