Southern Wesleyan University considers the acceptance of a registration slip as a contract binding student and parents for charges for the entire semester.
However, when withdrawal from school or a class becomes necessary, reduction in charges (tuition-only) will be made according to the following scale:
- 1st week of the semester: 100%
- 2nd week of the semester: 75%
- 3rd week of the semester: 50%
- 4th week of the semester: 25%
After the fourth week there will be no reduction in tuition charges.
There will be no refund of fees.
Board will be adjusted on a weekly basis, any part of a week counting as a whole week.
Room will be adjusted by the month, any part of a month counting as a whole month (4 weeks equal 1 month). No refunds will be made on rooms after 8 weeks (2 months).
No refund will be issued to students compelled to leave school for disciplinary reasons.
One day of summer session is computed as equal to one week of regular session. Summer school refunds are at the rate of 25% per day.
No refund will be made for private music lessons missed unless the student has made proper arrangements ahead of time.
Withdrawal forms must be obtained from the Records Office and returned there when all required signatures are collected. No financial adjustments will be made if the student fails to withdraw properly and a grade of 0 will be assigned for each course not successfully completed.
NOTE: Students who receive Title IV financial assistance are subject to refund policies for their financial aid that are different from the one described above. When a student withdraws, a refund calculation which determines the amount of Title IV aid earned will be used to determine the amount of funds that must be returned to the sources. Refunds calculated are returned to sources in the following order:
Students receiving financial assistance may be required to repay an appropriate amount of the assistance advanced for the semester of withdrawal.
Refund schedules and examples for all Title IV programs are available from the Office of Financial Aid.
