Tuition Balances & Refunds

Tuition and fees are reduced in accordance with the following schedule when courses are dropped. Withdrawal in first three weeks may result in a refund to the student. MCHP Scholarships will follow the same percentage chart for funds earned and eligible to keep by the student. Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized loans and other Title IV funds may be returned as required by the Return of Title IV Funds calculation.

The Bursar’s Office will send the student a detailed statement indicating any amounts due the College or amounts due the student as a refund. The statement will include the expected due date for any amount due back to the College for return to the Federal Programs (if applicable).
