Withdrawal Tuition Refund Policy Course changes for matriculated students are allowed during the add/drop period during the fall and spring semesters. After the add/drop period, no refunds are made for course withdrawals. Tuition Refund Refunds for students leaving the institution during a semester will be made as follows:
Please Note: Any undergraduate student who intends to withdraw from the University will be required to go through the withdrawal process. He/she must first see the Dean of Students Office to obtain the necessary forms. Verbal notice is not sufficient. For purposes of computing refunds, the date of withdrawal recorded by the Dean of Students after receipt of withdrawal forms from the student shall be considered official and that date will be used by the Business Office to compute any refunds due to the student. Room (50 % of Room and Board Rate) There will be no refund of the room charge for the semester after the room has been occupied. A student obtaining permission to break the Residence Hall/Dining Service Contract by moving off campus for the spring semester will be billed 50 percent of a double room rate for that semester. Board (50 % of Room and Board Rate) If a student withdraws during the semester, a refund for board charges will be prorated effective the first of the following month. Other Fees After registration there shall be no refund of lab fees or other annual fees. Adjustments Adjustments to scholarships, grants and loan programs will be made in accordance with respective program Title IV regulations and University policy before a refund to the student or parent is calculated. In cases where a refund may be due and the student has received funds through the Guaranteed Student Loan Program, it is our policy to refund those funds directly to the bank which made the loan, consistent with Federal guidelines. Refunds will not be made in the case of absence, dismissal or suspension. Leave of Absence Tuition Credit Policy In the event a matriculating undergraduate student desires to apply for a leave of absence, a Leave Form must be submitted to the Dean of Students. The form will include the reason for leaving as well as the expected date of return. An approved leave of absence will result in refund towards the student's tuition subject to the Withdrawal Tuition Refund Policy. Failure to return on the date agreed will result in a withdrawal from the University. A student in the military reserves will be granted a full leave of absence tuition credit should the student be called to active duty while attending courses during any given semester. Room, board, and fees will be subject to regular withdrawal policies. Payment Options The person or persons responsible for tuition and fee payments (whether it be a student, their parent(s), or guardian(s) may pay the charges as they come due each semester or by using the ten month installment plan offered through AMS (see Option II: Monthly Payment Plans). They may also arrange to pay by using a combination of these payment arrangements. The payment dates in the UNE sponsored payment plans cannot be deferred for the convenience of families using guaranteed student and parent loans, or other tuition payment programs. Both long and short term financial arrangements should be made far enough in advance to assure payment on the required dates. Special problems or emergency situations can be discussed with the Student Accounts Office at the University Campus, or at the Student Registration and Financial Services Center at the Westbrook College Campus, at any time. In addition to the following options for payment, UNE accepts Mastercard, Discover, and VISA cards. Option I: Payment by Semester About June 15 a bill will be sent for the tuition, board, room rent, and fees for the fall semester. Payment on this bill is due August 15th. Payments from the family, or any other cash payments will appear on the bill as credits. Awarded financial aid will appear as a credit or if pending, as a memo to be deducted from the amount owed on the bill. The balance due is the difference between all charges, credits, and memos. The bill for the spring semester will be sent about December 1 and is due on January 10. Option II: Monthly Payment Plans The UNE Installment Plan (IP) spreads the full year charges over ten months beginning June 1st. This program is administered on behalf of UNE by Academic Management Services (AMS). These plans are designed to relieve the pressure of "lump sum" payments by spreading the cost over 10 months. There is an application fee. There are no interest charges. Application Deadline Students and/or their parents are urged to apply by May 15th. Applications made after the start of the program (June 1st) must be accompanied by an initial payment sufficient to become current with the regular 10 month payment schedule. Applications for the 10 month plan will not be accepted after August 15th. Late Payment Charge The balance due each semester will be considered overdue if not paid by the specified date, and any unpaid balance will be subject to a late charge of 12% per annum or 1% per month. Students with unpaid bills will not be placed on the official school roster nor can they attend classes until they have received clearance from the Business Office. Students with overdue accounts are not eligible for academic credit, transcripts, or degrees. Important Notes
