Tuition Refund and Liability Policy
Refund and liability calculations of tuition and fees will be based on your official or unofficial withdrawal date in accordance with College policy and SUNY regulations. Schedules are published for all terms and can be found on Banner Web and the College website in detail, and in the Billing Information brochure in summary.
Refund and Liability Policy Overview
Refunds will not be made to students who do not attend classes and have not completed the withdrawal procedure. Academic drop deadlines are not the same as refund and liability schedules. The College’s general refund/liability policy for full-term classes is outlined below; refer to the detailed refund/liability schedule for Mod class refund dates.

Federal law mandates how a school must compute the amount of Federal financial aid that a student earns if he/she withdraws (officially or unofficially), takes a leave of absence, drops out of school, or is dismissed prior to completing more than 60% of the term. Specifically, for the Fall and Spring terms, the amount of Federal financial aid that the student earns is based on the percentage of a semester completed. All unearned Federal financial aid must be returned to the source. Careful consideration should be given to the financial consequences of separating from the College prior to completing 60% of a Spring or Fall semester. Summer semesters and most Mods within all terms have different rules governing Federal financial aid. Additional information regarding this policy is available from the Financial Aid Office.
