Tuition Refund Policy First Professional Programs
The University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences has an established add/drop period that is the first week (seven days) of each semester. All tuition and fees will be refunded to students or to student loans, who withdraw from a program or a course within the add/drop period.
If a student withdraws from the program or a course after the add/drop period but prior to completion, the student may be eligible for a tuition refund in accordance with the following policy:
Withdrawing from a Program-Refund of Tuition after the Start of Trimester Courses: For students who withdraw from ALL classes during day 1 – 7 of the trimester (Add/Drop period), 100% of tuition/fees will be refunded to student and/or to their loan. After day 7 for students who withdraw from ALL classes but before 60% of the term has elapsed, USAHS will calculate the refund using a percentage formula and return the refund to the student and/or to the student loan. If more than 60% of the term has elapsed, there will be no refund.
Withdrawing from a Course-Students withdrawing from 1 or more course(s), but not the program, will have their refund calculated under the same percentage formula as those withdrawing from a program.
Step 1: Determine the percentage of the enrollment period the student attended before withdrawing (days attended divided by total days in the period). If over 60%, then no refund is due.
Step 2: Determine the amount of tuition earned by school by multiplying the total tuition/fee charged by the percentage of time enrolled.
Step 3: Compare the amount of tuition earned by school to the amount received by the school. If more funds were received by the school than tuition earned by school, determine the amount of funds that must be returned by subtracting the tuition earned by school amount from the amount received by the school.
Step 4: Distribute this calculated amount as a refund to the student or to student loan.
Refunds are made within 30 days of the date the University determines that the student has withdrawn.
For students who receive federal financial aid who withdraw (including transfers and leaves of absence) from ALL classes on or before 60% of the term has elapsed, a portion of your tuition will be returned to your lender. Please see the University’s R2T4 policy for further information.
