Withdrawal from the School of Law

If a student finds it necessary to withdraw from Law School, the student must apply in writing to the Office of Student Affairs for permission to withdraw. The student may be entitled to tuition remission. The amount of remission diminishes as the student attendance at the School of Law lengthens. Upon recommendation from the Dean, the University will remit tuition (except the admissions seat deposit submitted by incoming first-year students) as follows:

100% Tuition Refund for withdrawal prior to the first week of classes
100% Tuition Refund for withdrawal during the first week of classes
75% Tuition Refund for withdrawal during the second week of classes
50% Tuition Refund for withdrawal during the third week of classes
25% Tuition Refund for withdrawal during the fourth week of classes
0% Tuition Refund for withdrawal thereafter

NOTE: For the purpose of the refund calculation, the first day of classes is considered to be:

Tuesday, August 12, 2008 for all first year students
Monday, August 18, 2008 for all continuing students

This schedule complies with federal regulations of the Department of Education. A copy of these regulations is on file in the Office of Financial Aid, Room 250, Law School. A student withdrawing during from any semester without approval of the Dean is not entitled to remission of tuition and will automatically receive a failing grade in all courses.
