1.21 | Tuition Refunds
1.21.A | Students that choose not to complete a class for the semester but intend to remain enrolled in other courses for the remainder of the semester should follow the procedure to drop the class. Dropping a course is not appropriate for students enrolled in only one course for the semester.

- 12th class day for Fall and Spring semesters
- 4th class day for Summer 1 term
- 4th class day for Summer 2 term
- 2nd class day for Winter Intersession
- 2nd class day for Spring Intersession
