Withdrawals, Refunds, and Credits
2004-2006 Undergraduate Catalog | Catalogs

Roosevelt University’s refund policy meets the standards, required by federal law, governing the awarding and disbursement of Title IV student financial assistance.

Refund policy for students

The date of withdrawal for purpose of tuition credit shall be the date on which the Roosevelt University official change of registration form is received by the Office of the Registrar or the last documented date of attendance whichever comes first. Tuition credits will be granted only for students who officially withdraw in writing. Students who register but do not attend classes will not receive a tuition credit unless they officially withdraw. The general fee and other University fees are not refundable.

Summer, intensive, online, and external courses are some examples of courses that do not necessarily use the above refund schedule.

Summer policy

The tuition credits allowed for withdrawn courses in the summer terms are adjusted to take into account the shorter length of the terms. Please see the Summer Class Schedule for tuition credit information.

Refund policy for residence life

Residence hall contracts are signed for the cost of room and board for an academic year. A security deposit is required in advance of residency. The deposit is forfeited if the student fails to fulfill the terms of the contract or departs from housing before the end of the contract period. Students who leave the residence before the end of the contract are responsible for the total cost assessed for the contract.
