Tuition Refund Policies

If a student officially withdraws or is dismissed from the College during a quarter, credit for that quarter will be issued as follows:

    Notification date during
    First and second weeks: 90%
    Third week: 50%
    Fourth through sixth weeks: 25%
    After the sixth week: 0%

Students who cease attendance but do not officially withdraw may be liable for 100 percent of charges for the quarter. Sample tuition refund calculations are available on Blackboard. To officially withdraw, students must contact the Advisement Department.

A student’s enrollment status is determined at the end of the add/drop period (week two). At that time the student is charged, and any financial aid is paid based on the enrollment status. Individual course drops after week two do not entitle the student to a refund for that course.

Balances in excess of charges, including deposits, held at the time of withdrawal or dismissal, will be applied to outstanding charges. Any overpayment of tuition will be refunded.

Residence and food service charges are incurred at the start of each quarter; once the quarter has started, there will be no refunds.

Students who withdraw from the College prior to the end of the term may have their financial aid adjusted based on the date that the student officially withdrew from the College. Eligibility for disbursement of federal and state funds will be recalculated in accordance with federal and state regulations. Refunds will be made in accordance with the federal refund allocation schedule.

Institutional aid will not be refunded to the student. Berkeley institutional financial aid awards are earned ratably each quarter during the tuition refund period. Students who withdraw or are dismissed during or after week seven of the quarter will retain 100 percent of their awards.
