Refunds
To qualify for a refund, a student must formally withdraw or be granted an emergency leave of absence from the College by the Dean of Students (see Leave of Absence). A student withdrawing from Cornell, after having been approved by the Dean of Students, may be allowed a tuition credit. The tuition credit is calculated from the date the student last attended class, not from the date the withdrawal papers were received by the student, according to the following schedules. Residence refunds are calculated based upon the date that the student checks out with the Residence Life staff and the room is vacated. Dining charges will be refunded on a pro-rated basis from the Monday following the date the student checks out with the Residence Life staff. After the semester begins, there is no refund of the Student Activity Fee. Students' financial assistance will be adjusted using the required Federal Refund Calculation listed below. Consult the Office of Financial Assistance for further information.
Those students on a deferred payment plan may have additional payments to make. The College reserves the right to exclude, at any time, students whose conduct makes them undesirable members of the Cornell community.

The student is obligated to pay the full amount of tuition for the courses for which he or she registers, subject to the above schedules. A tuition credit is applied to the total semester tuition, not to the amount paid.
Refunds follow the federally mandated refund hierarchy as follows: Unsubsidized Stafford Loan, Subsidized Stafford Loan, PLUS Loan, Perkins Loan, Federal Pell Grant, Federal SEOG, other Title IV assistance, other federal assistance, Cornell College financial assistance, state-funded assistance, other assistance, and student.
A non-refundable enrollment deposit is paid when a student is admitted and decides to attend Cornell. Once a student enrolls, the College retains the deposit until graduation or until the student officially withdraws from the College. At the time of graduation or withdrawal during the academic year, the deposit, less any amount owed to the College, is refunded to the student. An enrolled student who finishes the academic year but chooses not to return the following fall, must notify the Dean of Students Office by June 15, or the deposit will be forfeited.
A more restrictive refund policy governs withdrawals from off-campus programs. Consult the program director, as listed under Off-Campus Programs. For refund purposes a semester is defined here as Terms 1-4 (September-December) and Terms 5-8 (January-April). Semesters consist of 16 weeks each.
Full settlement of accounts is due before an academic transcript will be released.
