Refund & Withdrawal Policies Fall 2008

For Law School policies, please refer to the Boyd Law School website. For Summer School policies, please refer to the Summer Term web site.

Students must drop all courses on the Online Registration Website to receive a credit or refund.

PLEASE NOTE: Refunds for courses dropped or total withdrawals made before the deadlines listed below are mailed automatically each week. Students will not receive a refund for total withdrawals unless a total withdrawal form is filed with the Registrar's Office. Courses dropped during the approved refund periods are processed as a credit to the student's account. A refund will be processed and mailed to the student's address on file with the Registrar's Office if the student's account results in a negative balance.

Under special circumstances, students dropping courses or making total withdrawals after the deadlines listed below may apply for a refund using the Fee Appeal Form.

		100% refund for all resident and nonresident fees for courses dropped through Friday, August 29, 2008. No refunds will be issued for individual courses that are dropped after this date. PLEASE NOTE: All non refundable fees will not be refunded even if the resident and nonresident fees may be eligible for refund processing.
		50% refund of resident and nonresident fees for *total withdrawal of all courses* by Friday of the sixth week of instruction: October 3, 2008. All official withdrawals must be made through the Registrar's Office.
		There are no refunds for total withdrawal after the sixth week of instruction. If the withdrawal is because of a medical emergency, please contact the Registrar's Office at (702) 895-3371.
		Refunds for fees paid with financial aid will be credited back to the appropriate financial aid accounts, and will not be refunded to the student.
		No refunds shall be made for health insurance premiums, regardless of student status.
		Please Note: Refunds are computed as a percentage of the total credit fees and may be reduced if any amounts are owed to the University.

The Cashier's office now offers DIRECT DEPOSIT as a more convenient means of providing refunds to students. The advantages of direct deposit are:

Convenience....No waiting on mail or waiting in line to receive checks or deposit checks.
Quick Access....The funds are available within two business days after the transactions have been processed in Student Accounts.
Safety.....Prevents loss or theft of check.

Signing up is easy...complete a Direct Deposit Form, attach a voided check (for bank routing and account numbers), then sign and date the form. It's that easy!!
