Tuition Refund Policy
Any student who officially withdraws from all classes will receive a refund based upon the Reinhardt University Refund Policy listed below.
Tuition Refund period: Percentage of institutional charges refunded
Total withdrawal during the official drop/add period: 100%
Withdrawal after the drop/add period of the semester: 0%
There will be no refund of tuition or required fees if a class or classes are dropped after the last date of drop/add each semester or session.
Refunds will be made only for students who completely withdraw from the University. These refunds will be made according to the Federal and institutional refund policies currently in effect.
Refund Checks
The Business Office disburses refund checks to the student once the student has attended class through the appropriate certification period and funds have been received. The student refund checks are disbursed electronically through the student's Reinhardt email. Whenever a school credits Federal Student Aid (FSA) program funds to a student’s account and those funds exceed the student’s allowable charges, a FSA credit balance occurs. A school must pay the excess FSA program funds (the credit balance) directly to the student as soon as possible, but no later than 14 days after actual FSA funds are received.
A written request must be submitted to the Business Office should a student wish to leave a credit balance for future use. Requests will not be honored when requesting to hold funds from one financial aid award year to another.
Residence Hall and Meal Plan Refund Policy
A residential student who moves out of the residence hall within the first two weeks of class will receive a prorated refund based upon the policy listed below. Withdrawal date:
- First week of class: 93%
- Second week of class: 85%
- After second week of class: 0%
Refunds and Disciplinary Action
Students suspended or expelled for disciplinary reasons are not entitled to a refund of any deposits, tuition, or fees paid. Students who must vacate their residence hall rooms as a result of disciplinary actions (but are allowed to continue attending classes) are not eligible for a refund of that semester's room rent; however, meal cards may continue to be used in the Gordy Center.
