MPA Open Enrollment Withdrawal Policies

If you find it impossible to complete a course for which you have registered, you must withdraw officially by completing and submitting a Self Support Change of Schedule Petition (PDF) to The Tseng College. Non-attendance, notifying the instructor or stopping payment on your check or payment voucher does not constitute an official withdrawal. NOT DROPPING A COURSE THAT YOU FAIL TO COMPLETE MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON YOUR GRADE POINT AVERAGE.

Refund amounts for withdrawals submitted up to the day BEFORE the first class meeting: The course fee will be refunded if you withdraw at least one working day prior to the first class session (up to 11:59 p.m.)

Refund amounts for withdrawals submitted AFTER 12:01 a.m. the day of the first class meeting: A refund of 65 percent of fees paid will be made if official withdrawal occurs before 25 percent of the course time has elapsed. Beyond that point, no refunds will be made. Your refund is based on the date you are actually dropped in SOLAR, not the date you stopped attending class.

NOTE: THIS REFUND SCHEDULE APPLIES ONLY TO COURSES OF FIVE OR MORE MEETINGS. THERE IS NO REFUND FOR COURSES OF FOUR OR FEWER MEETINGS AFTER THE CLASS HAS STARTED.

The university reserves the right to make changes without notice. You may check for schedule changes by visiting this Web site.

Your withdrawal notification can be made in person or by phone. (If you withdraw before the first class meeting, you may also make your notification online.) If changing your program on the Web, print the screen showing the action taken. The amount of your refund is based on time of withdrawal. The time of withdrawal is determined by the date on which The Tseng College receives written or electronic notification of your withdrawal. Retroactive withdrawal is not permitted.
