Transfer Rules and Refunds

Students may transfer from one class to another within the same academic discipline upon the approval of the instructors involved. Transfers shall not be considered withdrawals.

Definition of a course transfer: After the refund/transfer period, transfers may only be made between classes in the same academic disci-pline. Furthermore, transfers will only be allowed under the following conditions:

1. Both classes are of equal length and start in the same week.

2. The class from which the transfer is being made is shorter than the new class and both start in the same week.

3. The class from which the transfer is being made is longer than the new class and both end in the same week.

Fee Refund/Transfer Period: In order to receive a refund or transfer enrollment fees or nonresident tuition from one class to another, students must officially withdraw or transfer within the period defined below. Transfer of fees and tuition will be made at the 100% rate; refunds will be 100% less the service charge of $10. The period depends on the length of the class, regardless of when the student enrolls.

1. For classes that are scheduled for the entire semester, the refund/transfer period is the first two weeks of the semester. After the second week, no refund can be made and transfers may only be made within the same academic discipline provided that permission is granted by the instructors.

2. For all other classes that are scheduled for shorter or longer periods of time than the regular semester, the refund/transfer period is the first ten percent of the total scheduled class meetings, excluding holidays. After ten percent of the scheduled class meetings have passed, no refunds can be made and transfers may only be made within the same academic discipline provided that permission is granted by the instructors.

Nonresident tuition, health fees, materials fees and enrollment fees will be automatically refunded to students who officially withdraw or transfer during the refund period. After this period, they will not be refunded. All refunds except those caused by cancellation of classes are subject to a service charge of $10.

In the case of a verified military withdrawal, enrollment fees will be refunded with no service charge, provided no academic credit is earned.

College Services Card and Parking Fees will be refunded from the ASB Bank within the refund/transfer period defined above. After this time there is no refund. All requests must be accompanied by the College Services Card and/or parking permit. No refunds will be granted without the appropriate documentation.
