Tuition and Fees

Course registration by a student constitutes acceptance of responsibility by the student to pay all charges on or before the due date. The University reserves the right to withhold issuance of degrees, diplomas, and to bar or cancel registration, residency, or any other form of association with the University until all student charges are paid in full. Tuition and fee charges are assessed on a semester basis.

A late payment fee will be applied to a student’s account if payments are made after a bill's payment due date. Failure to make payments will place an account into delinquency. Delinquent accounts that are sent to collections will be charged for all related costs plus interest. Collections fees can be up to 33 1/3% of an outstanding balance.

The following tuition and fee rates are in effect for the 2024-2025 academic year. These rates, and any and all tuition and fee charges, are subject to change without notice at any time at the discretion of the University. Additional rates and fees not listed may apply to certain programs.

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

The University considers the decision of the Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee final. Fees are not refundable. 

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.

To obtain a copy of the Bursar Tuition Appeal Form visit the student accounts website or contact the office directly at 914-323-5266.

Once the Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee has reached a decision, the student will be sent an email within one-week of the meeting date stating the decision and action to be taken next by the University or the student.

  • If the tuition appeal is “approved”, the student’s tuition account will be adjusted accordingly.

  • If the tuition appeal is "approved with conditions”, the letter will outline which conditions the student needs to meet before the approval is processed.

If the Bursar Tuition Appeal Committee approves a credit, it will be available for up to a year from the semester that the appeal was submitted.

  • If the tuition appeal is “pending additional documentation”, the committee is requesting additional documentation in order to make a final decision. The student will have 30 days to submit the additional documentation or the appeal will be denied.

  • If the tuition appeal is “denied”, the student can request for the tuition appeal to be reconsidered by the committee if the student can supply additional documentation to support the circumstances.

Please note: Courses for which a tuition appeal are approved will not be dropped or withdrawn from your academic transcript. It is the student’s responsibility to withdraw officially from courses within the specified deadline. This committee deals with adjustments to tuition only.
