Cancellations and Refunds
If registration is cancelled before the first day of classes, full tuition refunds will be made with the exception of the admission deposit. Housing refunds will be made in accordance with the terms of the "Student Housing Contract".
Cancellations will be allowed only after the completion of proper drop/add procedures. Students who do not attend classes and do not officially complete withdrawal procedures during the cancellation period will be responsible for the full amount of the applicable tuition and fees.
Detailed housing cancellation information can be found at the Residential Services website at http://housing.udayton.edu
During the four-week cancellation period for the first and second terms, tuition and housing credits will be given according to the following schedule:
- During first week of classes 80%
- During second week of classes 60%

- During fourth week of classes 25%
- During or after fifth week of classes 0%
(The 1st week starts on the first day of a term; the 2nd week begins 7 days later, etc.)
Lab fees, Engineering surcharge and special course fees are 100% refundable for the first week of class during Fall and Spring term. Therefore, they are refundable on the same schedule as tuition.
During the two-week cancellation period for each six-week session of the split third term, tuition and housing credits will be given according to the following schedule:

Cancellations for a full third term course have a four-week cancellation period and will be on the same schedule as cancellations for the first and second terms.
Financial adjustments for tuition are based on the date the drop (withdrawal) form is finalized in registration.
Financial adjustments for housing (please refer to your housing contract) are based on the date of checkout from housing, if applicable.
In a summer term, lab fees, Engineering surcharge and special course fees are 100% refundable through the first three days of the term. Therefore, they are refundable on the same schedule as tuition.
Special rules may apply for students who withdraw and who received Title IV funds. Please contact the Office of Financial Aid if additional information is needed.
After classes have begun, the University fee for student activities is not refundable. All tuition refund requests and appeals must be in writing and directed to the attention of David J. Necessary-Director of Student Accounts/Bursar.
Students suspended/dismissed from the University or from University residence facilities as a result of disciplinary action are not eligible for any refund of tuition and fees or room and board charges under the University's Cancellation and Refund policy. Exceptions to this position will be made to comply with refund requirements of federal financial aid programs.
