Fees & Payment

Dropping a Class

Whenever a student drops a class, the refund schedule applies.

The following does not constitute an official drop, nor do such actions diminish your financial obligation to CSUN for the Open University Program:

  • Stopping payment
  • Not attending class
  • Merely notifying the instructor

Refunds

Once registration has been processed for Open University, full refunds will not be available.

  • 65% of the fees collected will not be refunded until the end of the third week of the semester.
  • No refunds will be given after the third week.
  • If a refund is due, resulting as a credit on your CSUN account, you will automatically receive a refund.
  • For credit card transactions, a credit will appear on your credit card account. Payments made by check, electronic check, money order or cash will be refunded in the form of a check.
  • Refunds are not based on the date a student stops attending class. Refunds are calculated based on the date that the student drops a class online or drops a class by submitting the completed Late Change in Academic Schedule form to the appropriate office.
