Audit and Senior Audit Fee

Individuals may audit courses on a space-available basis and with permission of the instructor. Auditors may register for lecture style courses (i.e. History, English, Philosophy). Auditors may not registrar for courses that require lab or class participation (i.e. Art, Dance, Foreign Languages). Audit courses are recorded on a transcript but receive no grade or credit and may not be applied to any degree. Auditors may register only after the regular add/drop period for the term has passed. Auditors are required to pay an audit fee listed in the schedule of fees. Senior citizens (age 62 and older) may have this fee waived upon presentation of proof of age at the time of registration.

Financial Aid Repayment Policy

STUDENTS RECEIVING FINANCIAL AID FROM THE UNIVERSITY WHO WITHDRAW FROM CLASSES WILL HAVE THEIR AID REEVALUATED, POSSIBLY NECESSITATING THEIR REPAYMENT OF A PORTION OF THE FINANCIAL AID RECEIVED. THE NECESSITY TO REPAY FINANCIAL AID DEPENDS UPON THE TYPE OF AID RECEIVED, APPLICABLE GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS, AND THE PERIOD OF TIME IN ATTENDANCE. ATTENDANCE FOR A PARTIAL SEMESTER WILL GENERALLY COUNT AS ONE OF THE EIGHT SEMESTERS OF FINANCIAL AID ELIGIBILITY NORMALLY ALLOWED A STUDENT.

Financial Aid Repayment Policy

Students receiving financial aid from the University who withdraw from classes will have their aid reevaluated, possibly necessitating their repayment of a portion of the financial aid received. The necessity to repay financial aid depends upon the type of aid received, applicable government regulations, and the period of time in attendance. Attendance for a partial semester will generally count as one of the eight semesters of financial aid eligibility normally allowed a student.

Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee

Tuition Appeal Forms are for students who are requesting a refund, credit or balance waiver of their tuition charges due to extenuating circumstances that occurred during a given term. Grades received and recorded on the student’s transcript will not be affected by this process and will remain as part of the student’s academic record.

The Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee will consider requests for adjustments to tuition charges when a student can document extenuating circumstances such as:

• Student Illness
• Illness of immediate family member
• Death of immediate family member
• Military deployment
• Change in employment schedule beyond the student’s control
• Verifiable Advising Error

In all cases, the situation must have interrupted your ability to:

• Adhere to the standard drop or withdrawal procedures.
• Attend class(es) for a substantial length of time.
• Complete the semester

Exceptions to this policy do apply.

Appeals must be received within sixty days from the end of the term in which the course was offered. Appeals older than that will be denied. The University considers the decision of the Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee final.

Grading, class assignments and other academic issues are not within the scope of this committee. Please contact your instructor, department chair, or academic dean.

Students should be aware that if a Tuition Appeal is submitted and they have received Financial Aid, their Aid may be impacted and they may potentially owe money to the University. We strongly suggest you meet with a Financial Aid Counselor before you file an appeal.

Residence Halls Fees

Room and board charges for the Fall and Spring semesters apply for the two periods beginning when the residence halls open at the beginning of each semester through the end of each final exam period. Students wishing to remain in the residence halls beyond the Fall and Spring semesters, most notably during the Intersession period and during the summer, must obtain permission from and register with the Office of Residence Life and pay additional fees. All students residing in the residence halls during the Fall and Spring semesters must participate in the University’s board program. All first-time freshmen students residing in the residence halls must participate in the 19-meal plan during their first year of residence.

Students are charged a daily fee for items that were not renewed and replacement and processing fees for lost items. Students are also charged for items that they ordered from other libraries that they did not retrieve.
