Refund Information Policy

 

Refund Policy
The tuition refund policy is established by the Board of Trustees of the University of Maine System. When a student withdraws, tuition charges and all associated course fees are reduced in accordance with the schedule below. When calculating tuition adjustments, the attendance period begins on the opening day of scheduled campus classes, includes weekends and holidays, and ends when the student provides written or telephone notification to the Registrar. If the notice is sent through the U.S. mail, the postmark date is used to establish the date of withdrawal


Dropped course policy
(Applies when a student does not drop all courses)
A student who remains registered for some courses is not charged for any course dropped during the first two weeks of the semester. The final date to drop a course without finacial penalty for tuition and fees is Sept.15, 2008. Students will be charged for tuition and fees when a course is not dropped by Sept. 15, 2008.

Students dropping one course and adding another must notify the university of the decision to drop before Sept. 15, 2008. Failure to do so may mean that the student will be charged for both courses.
