The refund policy schedule varies by program and is used to determine the portion of tuition that will be refunded for courses depending upon the date a student withdraws from a course. College policy does not allow retroactive withdrawals or refunds.

Courses offered for credit-only are nonrefundable.

Actual refund percentage depends on the official date of formal withdrawal.

Students who receive financial aid and withdraw or reduce credit load will have an adjustment/reduction in their aid award and may be required to return a portion of the aid to Gordon College.
