For Example: An undergraduate resident student enrolls for 9 units, paying the $2,115 State University Fee and local fees of $392 (total fees paid: $2,507). The student drops 3 units by the ending date of the designated drop period which is 5 days into the 113-day semester and receives a refund of $868.00 ($888 less $20 non-refundable administrative fee). See schedule above. If the student, after receiving a partial refund, subsequently withdraws 40 days into the term, the student would be subject to the same pro-rata refund at the time of withdrawal as students withdrawing at the same time. The percent of attendance for 40 days is 35.4% (40/113) and a refund of 64.6% of the full-time registration fees, $1,619.52 less administrative fee of $20. Student will therefore receive the balance of $751.52 ($1,619.52 - $868.00 partial refund) less the $20 non-refundable administrative fee.
Notes:
1. Refund checks will be processed after October 29, 2010. This prevents inadvertent issuance of partial refund checks to students whose classes start at a later time and for those students waiting/holding to add classes.
2. A refund request is not required unless students want to expedite the partial refund check processing. Allow ten (10) business days from the date the refund request form is received and stamped by the Bursar's Office.
3. If a partial refund check is issued and classes are added resulting in a full-time unit load of 6.1 or more, students must return the refund check or pay the additional registration fees, and have the add forms validated by the Bursar's Office. The non-refundable administrative fee of $20 assessed for refund check processing is non-refundable.
4. If a partial refund check was requested and issued, and the student withdraws from the University between August 24, 2010 and October 29, 2010, the remaining refund check will be calculated using the withdrawal pro-rata schedule for the original full-time registration fees paid less any partial refunds issued and non-refundable administrative fees.
