Fall Semester 2013 Tuition Refund Policy
Tuition is due in full on August 26, 2013.
Tuition charges must be paid in full by August 26, 2013. The University will refund tuition to students who qualify by formally dropping courses within the published deadlines. Failure to attend the course after registering is not justification for elimination of charges. Failure to pay will not release a student from the responsibility for these charges.

Refunds for Classes Less Than One Semester in Length

Students in this category must contact the Accounts Receivable Office at (757) 683-3030 (select option 2) in order for their refund to be processed.
The total tuition is considered fully earned by the University once scheduled classes have begun in any semester or summer session. Students desiring to drop/or withdraw from the University must formally notify the University of their intention by executing an official withdrawal process (web, phone, fax or form) from the Office of the University Registrar.
Issuance of Checks
If a student formally drops classes within the published refund period, the appropriate tuition refund (less any other outstanding debts owed to the University) will be authorized. Refund checks are made payable to the student and mailed to the student's permanent address approximately four to six weeks after the end of the drop/add period.
Replacement Checks
Checks that are lost, mutilated, or destroyed can be replaced. It usually takes 10 business days to have a replacement check issued. Click here for the form.
