Refund Information
Fees, other than tuition, board, and campus residential charges, are not refundable, except by withdrawal during the 100 percent refund period or in cases of cancellation by the University of student registration or courses. No tuition refund will be made in cases of suspension or dismissal. A student is officially withdrawn only after his/her withdrawal is acted upon by the Registrar.
University and Course Withdrawals
Upon withdrawal from the University, any refunds due will be released only upon surrender of the Student Identification Card. A written request must be submitted to the Bursar’s Office before a refund check will be processed.
When a student officially withdraws or reduces his or her class load, credit for tuition charges will be made based on the following percentage schedules:
- Fall and Spring Traditional Semesters
- First week of classes - 100%
- Second week of classes - 75%
- Third week of classes - 50%
- Fourth week of classes - 25%
- After fourth week of classes - None
- Summer Traditional Terms
- First week of classes - 100%
- After first week of classes - None
- Eight-Week Accelerated Terms - On Campus

- After second week of classes - None
- Eight-Week Accelerated Terms - Online
- First week of class - 100%

- Refunds of credit balances from financial aid will be available after aid is posted to the tuition account. Financial aid begins to be posted at the end of the drop/add period.
First-time students attending JU and continuing students who completely withdraw from the University and received Title IV aid (i.e., Pell Grant, SEOG, College Work Study, Perkins Loan, Stafford Loan or whose parents borrow on the PLUS Loan program) will have refunds calculated according to Federal law. Students withdrawing under these provisions should refer to the Title IV refund policies.
